development

In 1971 Angelika Jahr-Stilcken conceived the idea of ​​a culinary magazine. The publishing house Gruner + Jahr commissioned the Esskultur study in 1971 . The resulting zero number for food & drink sold successfully on test markets in Braunschweig and Nuremberg . On October 4, 1972, Issue 1 of Food & Drink appeared on the German market with a circulation of 400,000 copies.

editorial staff

Every month, the chefs from Essen & Trinken present around 180 recipes to their editors , around 60 of which are published. The aim is to develop creative and as original as possible recipes for upscale cuisine. These are then developed, cooked and tasted at one of the eleven cooking areas in the test kitchen of the editorial office. Some of these dishes are then photographed in our own photo studio . There are five criteria for the recipes: the recipe must be re-cookable, legible and as simple as possible, the dish must taste good and look good. Each recipe is cooked three times in total. In the first run it is developed, the second time it is cooked for the corresponding photo, the third time it is finally prepared by an experimental kitchen intern to ensure that it can be successfully cooked by the readers.

The daily food & drink magazine also appears in the food & drink department . The magazine Viva! Published from November 2005 to June 2008 ! and the magazine Essen & Trinken with Thermomix , published from October 2016 to January 2019, were also created by the editorial team.
