| Culinary Specialties of the Rhineland |
| |
| The region known as the Rhineland was the former Prussian Rhine region. Today its exact borders no longer exist, but it is found partly in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate (Rheinland-Pfalz), partly in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia (Nordrhein-Westfalen), and even stretches into Belgium. |
| |
| The most well-known foods from the Rhineland include Sauerbraten, waffles, potato pancakes, Halver Hahn, Himmel und Erde, and Spekulatus. Likewise, Alt, Pils, and Kölsch beers are enjoyed here, as well as a large selection of local wines. |
| |
| Hearty vegetable soups and stews are very common in the Rhineland region. Seafood is also a favorite, with dishes such as eel, perch, trout, carp, and mussels. |
