German cuisine - hearty home-style cooking

German cuisine has much more to offer than just potatoes and sauerkraut. Here is cooked properly, braised and baked. From the festive Sunday roast, to snacks for the little hunger to powerful, sweet baked goods - the specialties of German cuisine can sometimes not be more different.

The vastness and diversity of Germany are also reflected in culinary terms. On the coast, people eat flat and eat fish, the Palatine love their Saumagen and in the Black Forest there is Kirschtorte - so much for the well-known clichés. But what else does German cuisine have to offer? Which regional delicacies can be discovered while looking over the horizon? And is a potato pancake actually the same as a potato cake?

The answers to all your questions can be found here in the Lecker-Lexikon, the encyclopedia for traditional German dishes.
