Have you ever tasted a real homemade custard pudding? And no, we don’t mean the one that comes from a packet, but a beautiful, trembling cream dessert made the old fashioned way with eggs, sugar, milk and cream.

And much, much more. Sounds difficult? It is not. A real pudding just requires a little time at the stove and some hours in the refrigerator. And the reward - a quivering cream artwork that makes children quiver and adults sigh.

Luisa gives history and context to the cooking of Germany and its influences worldwide. Sprinkled with both personal stories and historical insights, Classic German Cooking will leave you with a well-rounded understanding of the cuisine and its lasting influence.
