Beyond Recipes:
The Heart of German Food Culture

German Food Culture is about more than just what ends up on your plate. It’s about the ingredients that shape the traditions, the memories, and let’s be honest... the cravings!

In this series, I’m looking into the foods that give German cooking its identity, from the seasonality of white asparagus to the everyday comfort of potatoes and sauerkraut. I’ve teamed up with my mom (yes, that Oma!) to bring you stories, facts, and even a few interesting opinions about what makes these ingredients so essential to the German table. :)



So that’s a taste of the ingredients that make German food what it is -- simple, seasonal, and full of character (kind of like the people who eat it!). Whether it’s something you grew up with or something you’ve just discovered, these foods connect us to place, history, and each other.

And hey, if all it takes is a humble potato or a plate of sauerkraut to spark a little nostalgia or curiosity, I’d call that a win. :)

More to come -- there’s always another story in the pantry...

​Sauerkraut, meaning "sour cabbage" in German, is more than just a tangy accompaniment to dishes -- it's a nutritional powerhouse with a rich history.

This fermented food is abundant in probiotics, vitamins, and minerals that contribute to various health benefits.

Aaand... it's delicious!

Cheers,

Mike
