Authentic German Pretzels

Pretzels to Germans are the most iconic baked good and even make it on most German bakeries' logos. I will teach you authentic German pretzels from the classic Brezel to copycat Ditsch bacon and cheese pretzels.

Hallo, I'm Sophie!

I am so happy that you are here at my German food and recipe blog named dirndl kitchen! Let's cook and bake authentic German recipes to help us feel closer to Germany!

I moved from Germany to the United States in 2009 and soon started to terribly miss the German food (okay, my family, too)! I still miss a nice weekend brunch with crusty Brötchen (rolls) and Teilchen (pastries), Döner Kebab and German cake and coffee time at 15 o'clock! So I decided to educate my fellow Germany-missing friends by writing about German food and traditions. I do so in a fun way with easy-to-follow recipes! I hope you stay a while and bookmark some recipes, so we can cook and bake together.

Mit viel Liebe (with much love)
