Cooking Germany

 Gastronomy

Give up your diet: German dishes are nourishing! Assorted cooked pork meat, potatoes, cabbage, herring and cheeses are used in several dishes. Not forgetting the 300 kinds of bread and 1,200 different pastries. The symbolic German sausages are cooked in varying ways depending on the regions; they can be simply brushed with mustard, served with lentils, grilled or served with sauerkraut.
The variety of German dishes includes: Bavarian knoedels (stuffed breadcrumb balls cooked in stock), Frankfurt pretzels, Westphalian ham and salt-meadow lamb.
German wines are very similar to Alsatian wines. The best are those from the Rhine as illustrated by the Wine Road. Wine lovers should not miss the greatest wine festival in the world in Bad Dukheim in mid-September.
Germany is also famous for its beer. Throughout the country, there are over 1,200 brasseries selling 5,000 different beer brands. To enjoy one of these numerous beers, go to Hofbrauhaus in Munich, the biggest brasserie in town (with a capacity of more than 1,000 people).
Strong alcohol drinkers will have a taste of schnaps, a generic term which designates any type of strong alcoholic drink capable of warming you up and picking you up!
