German schnitzel is a dish that carries with it the warmth of family gatherings and the echoes of old-world traditions. Originating from Austria, this dish has found its way into the hearts and homes of many, including those in our Midwestern kitchens. The crispy, golden, breaded exterior gives way to a tender and juicy interior, making it a favorite for both young and old. It's a dish that brings people together, perfect for a Sunday dinner or a special occasion.
Schnitzel pairs beautifully with a side of warm, buttery mashed potatoes or a tangy potato salad. A crisp green salad with a light vinaigrette can add a refreshing contrast to the richness of the schnitzel. For a traditional touch, serve it with a slice of lemon and a dollop of lingonberry jam or cranberry sauce on the side.
