What German Culinary Ingredients Are There?

By Katie Onson


Those who are familiar with the German culinary arts will tell you that different ingredients stand out. You may utilize some more than others, though this will vary with unique tastes people have. With that said, I think that it would be most important to talk about which ingredients are the most vital. For those who are looking to build their culinary arsenal for the future, here is what you should have if you want to get involved in German cooking in the future.

Potatoes - There are many typical ingredients in German cooking, but few are as frequently utilized as potatoes. Different styles exist, as far as this ingredient is concerned, and each of them can appeal to a variety of tastes. These styles include - but are not limited to - fried, mashed, and boiled. Wherever your tastes may lie, it's easy to see that potatoes matter, and that you should consider implementing them in situations where their presence is appropriate.

Cabbage - Another ingredient that matters, in the German culinary arts, is known as cabbage. The way that this is usually prepared - though this is far from the only method - is shredded and pickled. What results from this is sauerkraut, which is a common food seen in this style. Both red and white cabbage can be used to create this, but consider that the former is somewhat sweeter than the latter. Hopefully this helps you better understand which product is more effective.

Pork - It would be unwise to talk about the German culinary arts without going over the different types of meat to be used. Pork is one of the most common, and it's especially delicious when it's prepared well. Not only is the style of cooking integral, which goes without saying, but one cannot deny the importance of meat served alongside vegetables for a greater culinary experience. This is yet another ingredient that isn't to be overlooked.

As you can see, there are numerous aspects that can be applied to the German culinary arts. Suffice it to say, some of them may stand out more than others, but each of them has a place in your arsenal. Not only do they have unique tastes, from one to the next, but the nutritional value they possess will vary as well. In order to get the most out of said ingredients, though, focus on learning how to cook effectively and apply your knowledge to each endeavor.
