Striezelmarkt: Encyclopedia II - Stollen - History

The old name Striezel was from strüzel or stroczel, "awaken" (Old Prussian: troskeilis), which came to mean "loaf of bread". The shape of the cake was originally meant to represent the baby Jesus wrapped in swaddling clothes, and was one of a number of baked goods created to represent aspects of the Crucifixion: the pretzel represented Jesus' bonds, and the (holeless) doughnut (Pfannkuchen) represented the sponge given to Jesus on the cross. However, the Stollen reminded Erzgebirge miners of the entrance to a mine tunnel, which is the literal meaning of < ...

Striezelmarkt: Encyclopedia II - Stollen - Stollen today

Today the cake is available in many parts of the world. The true Dresden Stollen, however, is produced in the city and distinguished by a special seal depicting the city's famous king, August the Strong. This "official" Stollen is produced by only 150 bakers. Every year in Dresden a Stollenfest takes place. This recent tradition has taken place only since 1994, but the idea comes from the days of August the Strong in the 18th century: the king loved pomp and feasts, and in 1730 impressed his subjects with a giant 1.7-tonne Stol ...

Striezelmarkt: Encyclopedia II - German cuisine - Fish

Trout is the most common freshwater fish on German menus, although pike, carp, and perch are also frequently served. Seafood was traditionally restricted to the northern coastal areas — except for the once-ubiquitous pickled herring. Nowadays many seafish like fresh herring (also as rollmops), sardine, tuna, mackerel, and salmon have become well established throughout the country. Prior to the industrial revolution and the ensuing pollution of the rivers, however, salmon was so common in the rivers Rhine, Elbe, and Oder that servants complained about being served salmon too often.

Striezelmarkt: Encyclopedia II - German cuisine - Eating Habits

Traditionally, the main meal of the day is lunch (Mittagessen), eaten around noon. Dinner (Abendessen or Abendbrot) is a smaller meal, sometimes only consisting of a couple of sandwiches. However, changing working habits have forced this to be changed in recent decades; today, it is not uncommon for many Germans to eat their main meal in the evening. Breakfast (Frühstück) commonly consists of bread, toast, and/or bread rolls (Brötchen or Semmeln) with jam, marmalade or honey, eggs, and coffee (coc ...

Striezelmarkt: Encyclopedia II - German cuisine - Bread

With regard to bread, German cuisine is more akin to Eastern than to Western Europe. The country boasts at least 300 different types of bread, ranging from white wheat bread to grey bread (Graubrot) and "black" (actually dark brown) rye bread (Schwarzbrot). Most types of bread contain both wheat and rye flour (hence Mischbrot, mixed bread), and often wholemeal and seeds (such as linseed, sunflower seed, or pumpkin seeds) as well. Pumpernickel, a Westphalian black bread, is not baked but steamed, and has a unique sweetish taste. G ...

Striezelmarkt: Encyclopedia II - German cuisine - Drinks

Beer is very common throughout all parts of Germany, with many local and regional breweries producing a wide variety of beers. In most of the country Pils is predominant today, whereas people in the South (especially in Bavaria) seem to prefer Lager or wheat beer.
