In addition, German cuisine also includes famous German mung bean soup, German sashimi, German roasted miscellaneous meat, German sausage, sauerkraut, German apple crisp, fried biscuits and so on. These delicious foods are not a small temptation for students studying in Germany.
Three meals a day.
As in most parts of China, Germans eat three meals a day. Breakfast is usually at seven o'clock, lunch at one o'clock and dinner at seven o'clock. Some places have afternoon tea and cakes between lunch and dinner.
Different from China's eating habits, the most exquisite and sumptuous thing for Germans is not lunch and dinner, but breakfast. In restaurants of hotels or government agencies, breakfast is mostly self-service, including staple food, meat, vegetables, drinks, fruits and so on. , not only rich in variety, but also good in color, smell and taste. In ordinary families, no matter whether the family is rich or poor, the contents of breakfast are generally the same: first, drinks, including coffee, tea, various juices, milk and so on. The staple food is all kinds of bread, as well as butter, cheese and jam with bread, plus sausage and ham. Germans eat very efficiently. They can mix and finish these rich foods in just 65,438+00 minutes to provide energy for their intense work in the morning.
According to intermediary experts, lunch in Germany is generally eaten in canteens or fast food restaurants, which is a veritable fast food, such as a platter of potatoes, salad lettuce and a few pieces of meat, plus a drink. In families with housewives and underage children, lunch is also relatively simple, such as a piece of cooked meat, a meat pie with boiled vegetables and bread, or beef stew with rice and lettuce. Just like noodles with gravy in China, it's easy to mix spaghetti with gravy, and have a cup of coffee or an ice cream after dinner. Germans simplify lunch not to save money, but to save time.
German family dinner is usually a cold meal, which is very rich in content: a large plate of meat; Fresh and delicious vegetables, such as radishes, tomatoes and cucumbers; Fresh fruits such as grapes and cherries. Some housewives also put out various flavors of cheese, and bread is the staple food. Dinner time is relatively wide, and the family sits around the table and chats while eating.
An intermediary expert told me that in addition to three meals a day, some Germans are used to having lunch at four or five in the afternoon? Extra meal? Have a cup of coffee or tea, a cake or some biscuits. Upper-middle class families like to invite friends to have tea and chat at home at this time. At such a party, guests can taste world-famous German cakes, and German women generally practice the skill of baking snacks with one hand. However, in today's fast-paced social life, this kind of afternoon leisure enjoyment is only possible on weekends, holidays or holidays.
