About Snitzel
Schnitzel is a thin, breaded and fried cutlet traditionally made from pork, veal, or chicken. Originating from Austria, it is a staple in Central European cuisine, with Wiener Schnitzel—prepared using veal—being its most iconic version. The dish typically involves tenderizing the meat, coating it in flour, egg, and breadcrumbs, then pan-frying it to golden perfection. While schnitzel is rich in protein due to its meat base, its preparation often involves high amounts of fat if deep-fried or paired with creamy sauces. The breadcrumbs and frying process increase its calorie content, making moderation key for nutritional balance. Opting for baked versions and serving it with fresh salads or steamed vegetables can enhance its health profile. Despite its indulgent nature, schnitzel remains a beloved comfort food celebrated for its crispy texture and satisfying flavor.
