Whether you're looking for classic recipes, vegan holiday menus, or current trends for the festive season – here you'll find everything that makes your celebration truly special.
The Gans wie bei Oma blog –

Tradition Meets New Ideas
At Gans wie bei Oma, delicious food takes center stage. We love classic Christmas dishes that evoke childhood, family, and comfort – and at the same time, we show you how to combine them with modern ideas.
Here on the blog, you'll find our professional step-by-step instructions for the perfect Christmas goose: crispy on the outside, tender and flavorful on the inside. We'll tell you which side dishes pair well, how to save time when roasting, and what to look out for to ensure your goose is a guaranteed success.
And because more and more people are eating more consciously, we also present delicious plant-based alternatives – such as our popular vegan drumstick, festive main courses based on lentils or seitan, creative side dishes, and refined sauces. This way, everyone at the table will find something to their taste – no matter how they celebrate.
