About German schnitzel
German Schnitzel is a traditional dish originating from Germany, though it shares roots with Austrian Wiener Schnitzel. Typically made from thinly pounded cuts of pork or veal, the meat is seasoned, coated in flour, dipped in eggs, and covered in breadcrumbs before being pan-fried to a golden crisp. Schnitzel is often served with sides like potatoes, salads, or spaetzle and garnished with lemon slices for added flavor. While it provides protein from the meat, Schnitzel’s breading and frying process make it high in calories and fats, especially saturated fat. Opting for leaner cuts of meat or baking instead of frying can make it a healthier choice. Pairing Schnitzel with nutrient-rich sides such as steamed vegetables or whole grains can further balance its nutritional profile. It remains a beloved comfort food but should be enjoyed in moderation within a well-rounded diet.
