Nationality noodles: Austria

13 comments
  1. Tafelspitz (national dish) over noodles (sauce made of tri tip, marrow bones, carrots, parsnips, celeriac, onion, bay leaves, black peppercorns, allspice berries, & juniper berries with salt added just before serving) served with the sliced tri tip, sour cream, horseradish, & chives

    Wiener Schnitzel (pork cutlet pounded thin with black pepper & salt, coated in white flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs, then pan fried in clarified butter)

    Knödel (made smaller) (simmered dumplings made of sauteed shallots & smoked ham, crumbled stale white bread soaked in beaten egg, milk, nutmeg, black pepper, & salt, & white flour)

  2. Hello, the only language I speak fluently is English, I’ll be using Google translate for comments I receive so please bear with me, I know many other countries also speak English but this is something I have to post in every country subreddit and I’m not going to edit it for a lot of different countries

    This is a project I’m doing in which I combine food native to a country with noodles, which I chose because I love them and noodles are versatile and easy to top things with. I eat the toppings first and then the noodles.

    This isn’t meant to offend anyone and I’m sorry if I make mistakes. Please let me know what I get wrong in a constructive way because I love learning. none of this is a substitute for anyone who is from any of these places who are the actual experts. I’m just going off of research from the Internet.

    I make ALMOST everything myself.

    I only eat once a day, so I can handle the calories from these

    Americans don’t actually eat like this, and neither do I usually, it’s only for this project, I would normally just eat (most) things separately, but for this project I want it to be all together as toppings. I am also aware other people don’t eat this way, it’s just the format I’ve chosen for this project.

    The reason for the watermark is that my content (this series specifically) has been stolen in the past.

    I draw all of the flags myself and sometimes they are quite time consuming, but it’s worth it because I love flags. Each of these pictures takes minimum 2.5 hours to research, draw, cook, and post, usually longer (they get posted in multiple places, there are a couple people that enjoy seeing them in different places). That’s also why I explain what things contain, I’m aware the people reading this week already know three recipes and facts written here, it’s for other subreddits who won’t know.

    I’m doing every country, please be aware that this intended to be a fun project for me, meant to celebrate culinary diversity.

    Sometimes I get things wrong, sometimes there either isn’t enough information available or the information I find is incorrect. Sometimes one country’s version of a dish is similar but different from neighbor country. Additionally, sometimes things get lost in translation, and sometimes I have to change up a recipe, put my own spin on it, or make substitutions for ingredients I can’t find.

    I’ve lived in Massachusetts, USA my entire life, and I’m mostly Swedish by ethnicity.

    I add nutmeg after the picture, people would get tired of me REAL quick if it was in every picture I posted.

  3. This is a really weird mix – especially with the noodles (I saw your explanation but it is still super weird).

    My first thought is that it is a pity you are putting so much effort into it only to kinda ruin it by mashing so many different things together that are not a good combination at all. Or do you eat it seperately with real sides after making the photo?

  4. Despite the knee jerk reaction of “how dare you combine Schnitzel with literally anything remotely saucy” –

    I’m going to go ahead and say this looks REALLY delicious. Cornerstones of what I consider Austrian food in a little bite sized collection, without losing their characteristics.

    Only thing I would improve is choosing something like Käsespätzle instead of the noodles, but I guess they’re your baseline for that project.

    9/10 would definitely eat!

  5. Boa, mit mehr soße würd das glaub ich als ultimaives, österreichisches Ramen durchgehen, i love it

  6. Hahaha, fantastic job, mate! You’ve annoyed a lot of my compatriots. They’re much too particular about how things should be done. 10/10
