Recipes we actually cook.
No 12-step restaurant reductions, no “authentic” theatre. Just the home versions Salzburg families actually make, with the shortcuts noted and the bits that matter flagged.

Cooking Salzburg at home

Where do I find the ingredients?
Most are pantry staples. For Bergkäse and proper Marillen, a good deli or the Schranne market beats the supermarket.
Which is the easiest to start with?
Kaiserschmarrn: hard to ruin, instantly rewarding, and forgiving of a wobbly flip.
