German national cuisine

German national cuisine is not uniform; in different regions of the country different dishes are considered national. While a mixed culinary style predominates in Berlin and northern Germany, Bavaria, Hesse and Baden-Württemberg remain oases of the "Schwabische Kueche", whose most famous dishes are the unique German khinkali (Maultaschen) and the Geisburger Marsh meat dish.
Many people associate German cuisine with sausages. There are not many of them in Germany. But don't forget about sauerkraut, Hamburg eel, Berliner schnitzel and finebacker. Thick, hearty German salads are slightly heavier than French ones and contain a lot of vinegar. Both beer and wine are popular in Germany, especially white wine, which is not inferior to French. The traditional center of winemaking is the historical region of Franconia (modern Bavaria). The village of Ulba is located in the Stuttgart region, famous for its Trollinger wine.
