About this Cook
I work and go to school full-time and my husband travels all week for his job in sales, so we don't cook often. But on the weekends when we have time we like to try new dishes and really enjoy cooking together. We have a great chicken marsala and are getting better all the time at various German dishes.
My favorite things to cook
comfort food like meatloaf and mashed potatoes German food (Jaeger schnitzel and spaetzle!)
My cooking triumphs
Jaeger schnitzel! We love German food and when our favorite restaurant closed I had to learn how to make it myself. After 2 years I've finally gotten the hang of it. :)
My cooking tragedies
Coq au Vin...it was awful.

Schnitzel
This is about as true a schnitzel recipe as I've seen in my German cookbooks. It's really good. It's even better if you tenderize the pork cutlets the day before and let them soak overnight in a mix of milk and egg in the fridge (just enough to cover the cutlets). They are much more moist and flavorful. We also like to top our schnitzel with both a strip of swiss and a strip of cheddar or american cheese, then stick them in a warmed oven for a few minutes to let the cheese melt. We picked this up from a friend who was born and raised German (entire family is still there). It's wonderful.
