German Rouladen (beef rolls ) by Chef Paul McGovern

I love German food !! This is time consuming to make and you will be in the kitchen for quite a while. So it is a great rainy day dish. Prep time for me is about 1 1/2 to 2hr and I am a Chef. The first time I did this about 20 years ago it took me 6 hr. to get it all done. That is cooking time also and it was at home. Spend the time…

Cocktail Rye Bread (with Bread Machine Dough-Making Option) by Salad Foodie

For the freshest taste and earthy rye flavor, make your own cocktail rye bread to pair with appetizers at your next party. Redstaryeast.com gave me the inspiration, but I took liberties with their cocktail rye bread recipe by using my bread machine dough-making feature to save kneading energy and time. Baked in mini loaf pans, the…

Black Forest Pumpernickel Bread (for bread machine or conventional yeast dough method) by Salad Foodie

A soul-satisfying dark bread with distinctive rye flavor. Supermarket rye breads can be a disappointment - at times dry, ho-hum flavor & nutrition, pricey and even difficult to locate. This bread won’t disappoint! Pair slices of it with corned beef or…

German Meatballs and Sauerkraut by Salad Foodie

I have never thought to serve meatballs on sauerkraut until I tasted this. Wow, forget about meatballs and spaghetti ~ this is delish! Perfect for anytime, and especially for Octoberfest. To serve several guests, I made the meatballs, cooked them and refrigerated a day ahead. About an hour before serving time, I spooned the…

Shoo-Fly Pie by Denise Sherin

This is probably the most well known amish pie. When we were small children our Grandfather used to take great pleasure in telling us that shoo-fly pie was made of actual flies! As we gasped in horror, he would wave his hand as if "shoo'ing a fly away" and say we got tired of shooing the flies away as the pie was cooling so we just…

Cinnamon Walnut Rugelach by Robyn Savoie

These charming crescent shaped cookies are flaky, tender, bite-sized Jewish treat sure to please. They house the just-right amount of nuts, cinnamon and sugar. Making this cookie can be a bit tedious and messy but well worth the effort. Rugalach come in many flavors, but this is my personal favorite.

Würziger Apfelkuchen (Spicy Apple Cake) by Robyn Savoie

Hundreds of German cakes, and desserts include this versatile fruit. This moist and spicy apfelkuchen can be found on the menu's of Konditoreien, coffee and tea houses, everywhere. I like to use Granny Smith in the cake and Honeycrisp in the topping. Granny Smiths are crisp and tart, while the Honeycrisp are crisp and sweet.…

Bavarian Saute by Gabriel Denison Chandler

This is so silly, but my Irish husband requests it all the time, so I thought I'd share it. It's a terrific time saver.Serve with rice or potatoes if you wish.

Bierocks (beerocks, bierochs...whatever, they’re great!) by Salad Foodie

A yeast dough stuffed with beef and cabbage then baked, this German “hamburger” has been a favorite treat whenever the mood to cook something different for others moves me. Make your own dough, use a box roll mix, or simpler yet, start with frozen dinner roll dough as I always do. Make them circular or fold up and pinch edges in to…

Runza (Meat & Cabbage Pies) by Bob Vincent

This is a modifed old German recipe. These are great served with a hearty soup. They make a substantial appetizer when cut into pieces. Yes, they are high in fat. Don't substitute the vegetable shortening as it is what really makes for soft and delicate dough. The sugar provides a sweetness to the dough. For a bit of color add…

My Grandma's Ribley Soup by Angie Hall

Smoked Sausage and Potato Bake by Heidi Coates

This recipe is easy to put together. Put all ingredients in a deep dish baking pan, cover and bake. I add vegetables in season, and frozen vegetables during the winter months. The first time I made this recipe, both my sons walked in and commented on the aroma in the house. They call this dish the "German Casserole".
