Crackers/50 recipes

"Kohlrouladen" used to be a staple on the menu for regular people in Germany during winter time.

This was a common meal in German blue collar working class families. It is still very popular on buffets, and even used to become "hip" recently for people who got bored with mussels, salmon or caviar on buffets. People in old times often did not use ground meat, but ground cheap meat leftovers.
