An American here, who has enjoyed the privilege of experiencing multiple German Christmases. I have to say that no one does Christmas more beautifully or solemnly than the Germans , but weirdly, food is something of an afterthought. The English cultural heritage puts much more emphasis on feasting. Just a side note, ‘wild meat’ = game. The venison with Spätzle she makes looks absolutely awesome.
Thanks Thomas. Merry Christmas you 😀
@@cooking-the-world Euch auch ein frohes und leckeres Fest! Wünsch ich wäre in Deutschland...
Well said. I grew up in the Danish tradition, many similarities to German ... and I truly appreciate what you've shared. As a child I thought everyone experienced similar at Christmas. The older I get, the more I understand how special traditions like lighting candles on the Jul tree, dancing round and the special foods are.
it's a tradition to serve the more fancy dish the day after christmas eve (Erster Weihnachtsfeiertag). The tradition in our family was to have different meats with Potato salad at christmas eve, and turkey with mashed potatoes and red cabbadge the day after,,,, we would invite the whole family to eat with us together :)
Fröhlich Weinachten, I will be having beer and whiskey. Possibly some food as well.
Food is good with alcohol, it's a good idea to have some!
Lol..
not being of German decent, I usually have a New England traditional Dinner. That is what my family is use to and is what they enjoy.
@@artieanderson604 No Alcohol at our Holiday Table. Just causes problems.
Sounds like my husband’s German grandfather!
During my high school days my family and I hosted a German exchange student for 1 year. She cooked us one meal before she went back home and it is the best meal I have ever had to this day!!!😍😍🥰
Oh I’m glad that you enjoyed the German food so much. Do you still remember what she prepared?
so nice
I am not sure how to pronounce the foods..but I remember there being a deep fried cutlet that tasted of lemon butter all throughout, with a side of cubed potatoes and purple cabbage. There was also a dessert of chocolate bread and cake. Truly amazing. I believe it was called schnitzel but I’m not too sure of the other names.
@@sabrinaparas71 Paniertes Schnitzel (Pork or Veal) mit Salzkartoffeln oder Bratkartoffeln und Rotkohl? Breaded schnitzel with boiled potatoes or fried potatoes and red cabbage? i think, or Pork chop? Happy New Year
I had a fermanagh student 5 years ago and she wasn't allowed to return to Germany fir Christmas holidays as the agency wanted them to experience a traditional Irish Christmas. She was vegetarian, but her family were not as far as I could gather. She was thoroughly confused by out traditional meat Xmas roasts obviously, so I asked her what her traditional Christmas Dinner would be with her family in Munich. She had to think for a few minutes and then said 'we usually have raclette.....kind of a mixed grill of potatoes, veg and cheese or meats'. It sounded very odd to me, in fairness and I did not have the machine. So in the end I did her a vegetarian nut roast with season roast veg on the day, and some nice cheeses, nibbles etc later in day. She was flummoxed by the tastes of our Christmas cakes, puddings and mince pues which were not a hit 😆, but she DID try everything that wasn't meat. Her grandma sent her some German sugar cookies she made herself, and I surmised these and marzipan and nut type pastries etc are all the rage there.
Omg my wife is German and I’ve been trying to think of a way to remind her of her Father who has passed. He would always make the best German dishes and she will appreciate this. Thank you for the ideas 🙏🏾
You are welcome. I think cooking something traditional would be a good way to honour the Father who loved German cuisine so much. I am keeping my fingers crossed so the food turns out good :)
@@cooking-the-world thank you 🙏🏾
I will let you guys know how it turns out. Have a Merry Christmas 🙂
I'm American. I traced my family tree back to Germany. I would to try a number of dishes you presented. Looks awesome. Thank you for posting this. Merry Christmas.
That’s lovely. Thanks Rachel for watching and commenting! Wish you Merry Christmas 🙂
When I was a kid my au pair made sauerbraten with ginger snap cookies in the sauce to thicken it.
I fell in love with German cuisine as a student many years ago in Erlangen. So, the most popular Christmas meal at our house has often been Sauerbraten with Kartoffelkloesse and Rotkohl. I'm being lazy this year, substituting pork roast for the Sauerbraten. Raised in Michigan and currently living in Nebraska, USA. Was amused by your potato salad, my wife, my mother, my mother-in-law all made the dressing for their potato salad using Miracle Whip and mustard - with the addition of a little sugar, this recipe going back at least 60 years
Hahahaha! What a coincidence 😊I hope you will enjoy your pork roast and that it will be as delicious as the Sauerbraten (if that was only possible;))
Did you go to K College? I did, and went to Munster for foreign study.
If you mean university - than yes. I studied in Trier and Cracow University. I was studying Marketing and Management. Foreign study sounds more interesting though;)
I grew up in Michigan as well, and am of German descent. Yes, simply mayo and mustard dressing in our house, too. I'm doing some potatoes today (Christmas eve) in a German salad with leftover chicken, onions and celery (maybe eggs, but not really needed, I think). That's about it (other than cayenne pepper!)
My grandmother was German and we always had the potato salad and sausage for birthdays. My 3yr old never got to meet her so it was very special for his birthday this year to be able to share that tradition with him and tell him about his great grandmother 💚
That’s so lovely ☺️
As a Swiss; I love the way you’ve modified Raclette! We do the same ;)
I’m from the US but currently living in Luxembourg with my British partner. We have a combined tradition where I get to have my traditional southwestern American dressing and he gets his roasted potatoes. Typically we have a turkey but back home we were able to do a nice prime rib a few times and it was great. Lots of good things to go with and in my family we always had some type of a fruit salad with a heavy meal and was told by my grandmother that this was to help digestion.
Thank you for the great video and all of the food types. As I’m now living in this part of the world I’m interested in trying all of these different things.
Hi Lynn thank you very much for sharing your family traditions. It’s lovely that you combine American and British once for Christmas. There are more and more international marriages and I really think that combining the traditions is beautiful. Half of my family is Polish so we also eat some Polish dishes during Christmas. Btw. the prime rib intrigues me because I’ve seen it mentioned few times:) I think I will look for a recipe:) Thanks for watching and for the inspiration! Stay safe there in Luxembourg!
My family had the Austrian tradition of cooking thanks to Mom who was born there.. I also taught school in Bavaria for a year with a US group of 17 teachers. I love your recipes! Made Grandma's duck recipe (boiling water over the skin rubbed with garlic and fresh lemon) and guests were still sucking the bones past midnight. You make me want to go back to Germany again for the 6th time.
Yay! I knew my Sunday won’t end without Marta’s cooking video 😊 Raclette is such a fun and interactive way to enjoy a meal, family and guests. But the pot roast, Brussels sprouts and potato dumplings are a nice filing and savory meal, yum!!
Thanks for watching I am glad you enjoyed the video so much. I put the half of the roast in the freezer, we will have it on 25th :)
Thank you Marta and Merry Christmas. I’ll cook a Rib Roast of beef with Yorkshire pudding, green beans, potato gratin and a simple salad.
And that sounds delicious to me:)
My grandmother was the daughter of German (Prussia) immigrants to America circa 1890’s and came to California as a cook around 1920. I find it hilarious that the only recipe I have is one she obtained from a Mexican lady while camping near the border in 1923 for enchiladas. I love hearing the German recipes!!
Hahahaha! Enchiladas are good though.. 🙃
My family here in America has traditionally made sauerbraten and spaetzle. Our spaetzle are large made from just the normal flour, water and egg. We cut them off the edge of a plate into boiling water. After we boil them, we place them on a rack on the counter to dry. Then they are fried in butter. Absolutely wonderful with sauerbraten gravy.
Oh this sounds just perfect 🤩
I lived in Frankfurt for almost 4 years and loved everything about that city. The food, breads, the people. I'm not german but I still miss the place and the food.
I spent childhood in Germany & I miss so much.
Oh, i am sorry to hear that 😌 Hope you Van bring some memories with the Food you cook at least!🤩
I want to try at least one of these this year. Thank you so much!
That's awesome! What are you thinking for preparing? We are definitely going for Geschnetzeltes (Pan-Fried deer). That's so quick and so delicious 😍
So many things that my grandma used to do in cooking. Most my family is German and everything makes so much more sense. Thank you for your content!
Thanks Keith for watching!
Merry Christmas and thank you. It looks so good.
Thanks and merry Christmas to you too
Vorab - diesen clip anzuschauen hat mir wirklich Freude gemacht. In meiner Kindheit gab es an Heilig Abend die Würstchen auf Platz 1 der Statistik. Das ist bald 60 Jahre her und damals standen ausschließlich die Mütter am Herd und diesen einen Abend sollten sie mal Pause haben. Nun wir haben jetzt andere Zeiten und ich, männlich, stehe seit bald 30 Jahren am Herd. Unsere Tradition an Heilig Abend ist Steak mit grünen Bohnen und selbst gemachten Pommes. On the 1st holiday I make Barbarie duck breast with red cabbage and spaetzle (a kind of noodle)
born and raised in Germany(Schweinfurt), been living in the US since 1994. Its always been a tradition when i grew up and i kept with it when i moved to America 👉Christmas Eve> 1.Backerbsen Soup(a junk of bacon in the broth for flavor) followed by potato salad and wieners. Christmas Day> Roast Duck, Potato and Bread Dumplings, Red Cabbage. In the US there's only one day of Christmas observed so therefore leftovers on the 27th for us 😉
Everything looks delicious and it gives me a hint of what to make.
Perfect.
We're going to have sauerbraten with spaetzle or potato dumplings and red cabbage. I came here to get some tips on the sauerbraten. Thanks!
Loves good Sauerbraten Any potato salad or roast potatoes. Raclette. Yes
I have av old cast iron Fondue dish and skewers
Exactly what we are having. Lots of work but, so good!!
I wish I knew how to make potato dumplings. Never got the hang of that dish.
@@dianejohanson98 Hi Diane, there a many ways to make the "perfect" potato-Kloß.
Every region in Germany/Austria/Tschechien.... has different receipes.
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kartoffelkloß
Fried dumplings are also very good, if there is anything left over.
Cut into slices and fry in butter. Sauce over it. finished
Thank you for this comprehensive video!
Thanks for watching!:)
Frohliche Weihnachten ! That looks so good !
Wow it all looks delicious
I liked German Christmas Dinner Menu! Thanks for your video!
Thanks for watching! Merry Christmas 🎄
Our tradition. Love these dishes.
Great video! Thank you!
Glad you liked it, it took a lot of energy to cook all those dishes;)
Always a wonderful video!
Thanks Daniel!
This, of course, varies from region to region and family to family. Our traditional holiday meal included roasted goose or duck, spuds, gravy, sweet & sour red cabbage, varied veggies, rolls, possibly gooseberry torte, brandy soaked cherries (my Oma's favorite), and other sorted delectable treats. Yes, I passed this along to my children.
Beautiful pork roast and sauerkraut. German soul food in this house. Merry Christmas!
That sounds just lovely enjoy a merry Christmas 😉
Merry Christmas. these dishes all look amazing.
Thanks. Merry Christmas to you too!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing

Thanks for watching! Merry Christmas 🎄
Thankyou so Much for Sharing.
Thanks for watching ☺️
This was fun ~ thanks!
I'm from New England, USA. We usually have a roast, this year it's ham, along with lots of "tapas" and other appetizers. I like trying new dishes to serve on Christmas, along with traditional ones. Happy Christmas everyone!
Germanys main courses, accompaniments and desserts are wonderful 🥰🥰🥰
I enjoyed watching this.
Thanks Kelly
Thanks so much. Best wishes for a happy new year!
Thanks Paul, and to you too 🙂
Very nice. Thank you! I'll be making a beef rib roast, red cabbage, Brussel sprouts, and kaesespaetzle.
This was so interesting and informative.
Yummy!! Delicious!! Have a Merry Christmas!! 🎄
Thanks 🤩 merry Christmas 🎄
We are having goose with a spicy pear, sausage and herb stuffing. On Christmas Eve it’s halibut in a wine and citrus sauce x
That sounds delicious! I bet you will enjoy it! Thanks for watching!:)
OMG, I LOVE Halibut!!!
I wish you could send me a plate full. That all sounds so wonderful.
May I come over?😁
I'd love that stuffing recipe. ..yum !
Wonderful!
Looks so good. Makes me hungry and wanting to go back to Germany. Danke
My dad moved from Germany to America in the 50s When he married he wanted his children to be American so he decided to have Christmas Eve of German cheeses, meats and sides. My dad has been gone for almost 20 yrs but the tradition continues :)
This is so wonderful! Merry Christmas and enjoy your Christmas Eve with German Specialities 🤩
My family did the same thing for Christmas Eve. Some of our sides were german potato salad, german pickles, meat salad and deviled eggs.
I'm so glad I found your channel. I am learning german and became curious about the cuisine. These videos always make me hungry 😍
Love from India💜
I just purchased a Raclette for my family for Weihnachten because of your video. We enjoy doing the fondue - both cheese and meat fondue - and it's time we "full German" with a Raclette! Froehe Weihnachten y'all (from Texas)!
I am glad I did inspire you. Now I hope that you will spend many relaxing evenings in front of it :) indoor grilling is so much fun! 🤩 we are planning Raclette for NYE, like every year. Next Sunday I will have a video coming up on how we prepare German Raclette. When you need the inspiration before, let me know, I will make the exception and send you a link to a private video :)
Wonderful looking food!
I just discovered your channel and I am obsessed! Mega tolle Idee 🎉
Oh, danke :) das freut mich riesig! :)
Making me miss Germany :( ... so many good memories!
Oh, I am sorry. The video should inspire not make you miss Germany ☺️ I wish you merry Christmas in any case 🎄
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching!
Great video and the food looks awesome
Thanks Claudia!
Really liked your video.
Immer köstlich :) Frohes Fest from America.
Danke James ☺️ and merry Christmas to you too 🎄
Yum.
Love your posts
Amazing video, you are such a wonderful lady thank you!
Thanks Jacob for watching! Merry Christmas 🎄
This is wonderful
Thank you! Merry Christmas 🎄
What a great video. Thanks :)
Thanks Susan! Merry Christmas!🎄
It all looks delicious and flavorful, the house must smell wonderful.
It smelled for a week:) But now I still have some dishes in the freezer, so I can enjoy it during Christmas. Thanks for watching and Merry Christmas!
@@cooking-the-world Merry Christmas to you.
OMG. You’re so right. I had all of these dishes except for carp. We had potato salad with Frankfurters countless times. 🎄🎄🎄
Thanks for watching and merry Christmas 🎄
I'm so glad that I found this site. My family is mostly German. My ancestors from both halves of my family came to America in the late 1700's and early 1800's. Now I can see how food dishes are prepared from Germany and surrounding countries.
Thanks for sharing and I hope you and yours have a Very Marry Christmas and whole lot better New Year.
Thanks David for a lovely comment. I hope that this tunnel will also inspire you to cook something:) And maybe you will recognize some dishes. I wish she also merry Christmas
Do you know if your ancestors were with the Hessian Army at the Battle of Trenton, the morning of December 26, 1776? It my American history studies that I discovered so many of the young in the Hessian Army at the Battle of Trenton, decided to stay in the new nation of the United States after the Revolutionary War was over. Within three decades the descendants of those who stayed, were the backbone of the great states of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and parts New York. In the 1960's, I lived near an Old German Church in Seattle, Washington, founded about 1885. Whenever I discovered the door open on my walk-bouts, I use to go in a sit a while and wonder if any of ancestors from the Battle of Trenton lived with me in Seattle? I could never answer that question, but I think my assumption was very right.
Wow, thanks for the overview of German Christmas traditions.
You are right: if you have high-quality ingredients, a simple meal can be just like a high-end restaurant.
Stuffing the duck or goose with bread and chives is a great idea. I think that a cherry sauce would be great.
The roast looked amazing! Adding bacon to the braising liquid would be amazing.
The potato dumplings and spatzle look delicious as well.
I have microwave red cabbage with apple in the past, and it was delicious, so I am sure that the red cabbage would have a lot of flavor.
Once again, thanks for all the information regarding German Christmas traditions!
You are welcome and yes, I put also some bacon in that sauce!🤩 wish you merry Christmas from Germany 🎄
Thank you for the wonderful share about what food you eat in Germany for Christmas I love all the dishes I love the Raclette is the best of cause love other dishes too
Thanks and Happy holidays!
The video is based on the survey from Statista. If you don't like that the Germans eat French and Swiss dishes for Christmas is obviously not the right place to complain, because it's not me who choose the dishes - the population choose the dishes.
As an American family with German ancestors and a husband who was born in Heidelberg, Germany to a native German mother, we decided to cook a German meal for Christmas dinner. I am making Weinerschnitzel with Paprika and caper sauce, home fried potatoes, red cabbage, salad and home baked bread. Dessert will be my Mother’n’Law’s recipe for Linzertorte. I make the Linzertorte every Christmas.
Sounds delicious!!!
You're a good cook - thank you.
So nice of you! I am doing my best!
As I have said in the past, my high school Baking instructor was from Bonn. We never had a "traditional" dinner. It centered around the kids preferences. What was a tradition and still is, is that I bake loads of cookies and stash them in tins. My favorite baked treat is Stollen baked for Christmas morning. I realize that I could bake it anytime of the year but it is Christmas for me. I love it with the center filled with marzipan. Greetings from Idaho!
Stollen Belongs to a traditional Christmas celebration:) I am really glad that you bake it for Christmas morning. What cookies are you making for Christmas? I baked this year Elisenlebkuchen, Butter cookies, Frankfurter Bethmännchen and today I will make some Vanillekipferl.
@@cooking-the-world I usually bake traditional American style cookies, like chocolate chip, butter spritz, peanut butter with a chocolate candy on top, a cream cheese pastry filled with jam and whatever I have been craving throughout the year. I also made a huge fruitcake for me brother as he is the only one who likes it!
Wonderful video. I lived in Germany for several years. All the foods you showed with the exception of the Carp I had the opportunity to try. One dish not mentioned was Sauerbraten, one of my favorites. It takes so much time for the marinading of the meat, but so worth it in the end. Have a Happy Christmas.
Sauerbraten rocks :) I decided to go less regional, therefore I made Schmorbraten instead. But you are right - it’s such a staple! Merry Christmas ☺️
"... It takes so much time for the marinading of the meat..."
Indeed, up t 1 week.
But it is no work !
But the final cooking needs time-->about 3 hours with low temperatur.
@@swyntopia Thank you, would never have known. Only made it at least a dozen times, but thank you.
They all look delicious! From Nevada USA
This took me back to my time living in Germany ;
I hope that it was a nice time with nice memories.
Using my other halves tablet. I am an Army brat my Dad was stationed in Germany twice. I joined the Army too I wanted to travel but my first duty assignment was 97th General Hospital in Frankfurt! I had gone to middle school in Geissen, high school in Frankfurt! Loved living in Germany. I also lived in Schweinfurt. Thanks for listening, JoAnn Sigby. Merry Christmas may your News Years be safe
In this case you know our Heimat :) hope you liked Frankfurt 😍
Oooooo guys so many delicious food on the table. I'm already hungry 😋 before Christmas 🌲
Very merry Christmas to everyone and happy New Year 💖🎈
Thanks Mike. As you can see I had Christmas dinner already 7 times in December when preparing this video 🤣 Thanks for taking and I wish you also a merry Christmas 🎄🎁
Your video is lovely 🤩. I want to try new traditions this Christmas and this is helpful. Thanks
Thanks Natasha, I am just working on the second part now so stay alert 😉 this time I am also including some starters and desserts :)
@@cooking-the-world Yum, sounds great!
The roasted duck with dumplings and your suggestion of brussels sprouts sounds ssssoooo good! The trout look great as well.
The Christmas Eve food tradition we serve at our house is veal meat pie - a French Canadian custom (at least, my grandmother's tradition - a French Canadian!)
I love your voice 🥰 it’s so soothing
Thanks 😊
I was born in Berlin/Germany and the procedure on Christmas eve was always potato salad and Viennas, on the 25th. Goose with Potato Dumplings and red cabbage, Carp was always served on new years eve!
But not how she is stuffing the goose....
I wasn’t stuffing a goose. Please watch the whole video and listen to I say before commenting. I talk about stuffing options and why I choose the one showed in the video.
Oh i have heard about the carp tradition for NYE! My grandmother comes from Berlin and they also cooked it on the 31st!☺️
great video, really enjoyed it. I'm have prime rib for xmas dinner.
Thanks! Enjoy and merry Christmas 🎄
haaaaaaaa when i was in Germany, i had the best Italian food I'd eaten in my life. the schnitzel house was great too.
Hahahahaha! I have heard that we also do the best Greek food as well 😂
@@cooking-the-world haaaaaaaa i know right. loved ur channel. the potato salad was interesting to me.
Great video 💖💖
Fab presenter 😍😍🥰😘👍. Being serious, excellent video and enjoyed all that you showed, am just curious if the mashed potato with the fried carp near the end is served like that or with an extra sauce of some kind, as it looked a bit 'lonely' on the plate [maybe it's because I like a sauce most of the time]. All the compliments of the season to everyone!
Carp has a lot of fish bones and therefore is safer to serve it without a sauce. We just trying to avoid hospitals during Christmas;)
So interesting, I love these videos. My grandparents on both sides are Austrian and every Christmas they both made oil fried potatoes with sausage and sauerkraut it was always so good that I still make it myself now 10 years later lol.
Nice that you keep the traditions alive! Sometimes I am amazed how good the simple meals can taste 😉
My mom is from Bavaria but we always had Lasagna for Christmas Eve. Christmas Day was typically a ham with potatoes.
Many families - many traditions. How beautiful!
At my son's house they always did vegetable lasagna.
Merry Christmas
And to you too!
Frohliche Weihnachten ❄
The purple cabbage looks yummy! We typically have smoked ham, potato salad, collard greens, and roasted chicken with cornbread dressing.
And this sounds also amazing! I hope that you’re going to enjoy your meal. Merry Christmas 🎁
First generation German-American and Christmas is always completely German food and treats. My kids love it too. Love your video! 💕🎄
How nice that you keep the traditions 😍
So nice thank you💕 I am German I cook very similar learned from my grandma ! 🌲🌲🌲🌲
Grandmothers were the best teachers :)
Very informative and entertaining. Makes my mouth water. I’ll surely try most of them for my family and guest. Thank you very much and more power to you. Happy New Year and be protected 365 days.
Thanks Merlita! Happy New year to you too!
Frohe Weihnachten Merry Christmas ⛄⛄⛄ And Happy New Year More Power God bless you Always From the Philippines Zambales Thank you for your sharing I love it German Food
Thanks Vicky. Happy New Year to you too! 😁
This Christmas Eve I’m serving as the main dish a double glazed spiral sliced ham from Aldi. I’m going to prepare it on our Kamado grill, so it will be double smoked as well. I really appreciated your video and the dishes looked amazing. I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas as well as a Happy and Healthy New Year.
Thanks Micheal! I also wish you merry Christmas and that the sliced ham turn out great. I love smoked meat 🤩
Christmas eve has been fresh made chicken soup and chicken salad with baguette since I was a small child ( long time ago) and we are keeping the tradition up at our home as well. Christmas day used to be goose or turkey with dumplings, stuffing and red cabbage. For the last about 15 years, or so we have changed the tradition to having a christmas brunch with family and or friends and everyone brings a favorite food. 2 years ago we celebrated for 12 hours,playing games, hanging out by the fire and just enjoying each others company. I must add, we are german and have lived in the US now for about 18 years. Merry Christmas to you 🎄💖
Oh this is so lovely that you still keep your German traditions! This is exactly how the Christmas should be spent like. With good food and family. I wish you also Merry Christmas, that the food turns out great and that you have a lot of fun ☺️
Christmas dinner was rouladen my mom was born Berliner
dessert was vanilla pudding with raspberry sauce drizzled on top.
Thank you for your video!!
I see. You should keep the tradition 😉
My Christmas dinner is a ham with the bone in, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, chicken stuffing, cranberry sauce, and an assortment of fresh salads. Great video!
Sounds delicious. Thanks 😊
That all looked so good..... Im in Rhode island USA but I have a friend in Reutlingen.. I wanted to visit for the buildings and go wherever the black forest is NOw i wanna visit for the food.
