Summary: yes, we are cabbage eaters....
Comment: ...but so much more, too! This is the first comprehensive cookbook about my native Germany that I am completely happy and impressed with. The culinaria country series is very good in general, and one of the great things about this series is the enormous attention to detail that is paid to the research, the photography, presentation and the recipes. The book very gratifyingly captures the many different local flavors and traditions that make up German cooking and let you understand that it is a very variagated culinary landscape. Another thing that I greatly enjoy in all the Culinaria series books is the great attention that is paid to local produce and spices and well as local traditional cooking techniques

Summary: A stunning gastronomical tour of Germany!
Comment: This book is a must-have if you have any interest whatsoever in traditional German cookery. Do not hesitate for a moment to buy this book or give it as a gift. If you've been looking for a book on the gastronomic history and culture of Germany, this is it. I've spent a very long time waiting for a book like this. This is just a completely stunning volume. It breaks the country down into 16 separate geographic regions, and highlights the gastronomic contributions from each of these areas. A great reference if you are going to try to incorporate more traditional German ingredients and skills into your own cooking style. The photography is the best. It is lush, colorful and absolutely gorgeous. Although this is not exactly a 'recipe book' per-se, the recipes that they have included for examples are lovely, traditional recipes. (Including twelve kinds of dumplings!) Luckily enough for us they have resisted the damnable tendency of American food writers to try and "lighten up" traditional recipes for "modern tastes". Bravo! And, they have thankfully included both US and Metric measurements for us poor Americans. The entire book has a lovely European feel to it, with superior printing and binding (of course, since it was bound and printed in France.) This is the cream of the 'Culinaria' series, and without a doubt, the best book of German gastronomy I've ever seen. It will be on my shelf for a long, long time. I loved it!
