Gluehwein / Gluhwein

This is a traditional German/Austrian holiday drink that is often enjoyed after a chilly day of skiing. I got this recipe from Else on Allrecipes.com and can’t wait to try it. I modified it slightly based on its reviews.

Bayrischer Gulasch: German Goulash Stew – Crock Pot or Oven

A firm favourite of mine when I lived in Herford in West Germany. This recipe comes from a German friend of mine who lives in Bavaria, and is delicious served with sour cream, dumplings or noodles – oh yes, don’t forget the crusty sourdough bread as well! Although this is nice served with the above accompaniments, it is essentially a one pot meal which is sufficient to feed most hungry families. It can be cooked on the top of the stove or in a crock pot; the latter method is my favourite, especially when I am very busy or I need to go out!

Grandma’s Secret Wiener Schnitzel Recipe

Grandma keeps her Wiener schnitzel recipe a closely guarded secret. Unfortunately for her, it’s not that hard to figure out. Anyway, it’s a really easy and delicious way to prepare chicken or turkey breasts, or even the traditional veal. My husband demands I make it more than I can stand eating it.

Kartoffelkloesse (german Potato Dumplings)

Just what the name implies – these are German-style potato dumplings, as found everywhere in the South of Germany, Austria and Bohemia. These are traditionally served with any roast with gravy, but most well-known as an accompaniment for a hearty Sauerbraten and red cabbage. Like polenta, second-day leftovers are a treat when sliced into slabs and fried in butter.
