Pomeranian cuisine

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Pomeranian cuisine is u. a. known for their wide range of fish dishes, such as the cream herring shown with onions and fried potatoes, or the pickled Bismarck herring from Stralsund .

The term Pomeranian cuisine is understood to mean the culinary preparation methods that are characteristic of the eating habits of the population in the historical province of Pomerania , which includes Szczecin and Western Pomerania . This cuisine is characterized by the crops grown by the Pomeranian farmers, such as beetroot and sugar beet , by their poultry breeding, which the famous Pomeranian goose produced, by the wealth of fish in the Baltic Sea , in the rivers and in the inland waters of the Pomeranian Lake district and the range of game from the Pomeranian forests. The Pomeranian cuisine is generally considered to be rather hearty. The potato , which thrives particularly well in the Pomeranian soil, played an important role . The existence of a potato museum in Western Pomerania is evidence of this to this day .

The Pomeranian farmers were self-sufficient, storing field crops until the next harvest, preserving meat products in the smokehouse in their own home or in smoke houses that were privately operated in larger villages (such as the village of Schlawin ). Fruit, vegetables, lard, and goose flavors were preserved by preserving them in mason jars. Syrup as a spread was made from sugar beet itself.

In the modern kitchen, the original Pomeranian peculiarities are often supplemented by new facets, old dishes are rediscovered and combined with current recipes.
