About Viennese schnitzel
Viennese Schnitzel, or Wiener Schnitzel, is a classic Austrian dish known for its simplicity and satisfying flavor. Traditionally made with thin slices of veal, the meat is coated in breadcrumbs, flour, and egg, then fried until golden and crispy. While veal is the authentic choice, versions using pork, chicken, or turkey are also popular. This dish is typically served with lemon wedges for a bright acidity and accompaniments like potato salad, cucumber salad, or lingonberry jam. In terms of nutrition, Schnitzel provides a good source of protein, especially when made with lean cuts of meat. However, it is high in calories and fat due to its breading and frying method, making moderation key for a balanced diet. Opting to bake or pan-fry with minimal oil can provide a healthier alternative while preserving the dish's distinctive flavor and texture.
