Hinnig

Hinnig is a traditional German dish that has gained popularity in other parts of Europe and beyond. It is a type of meatball soup, typically made with a combination of pork and veal, although beef can also be used. The meat is minced and mixed with breadcrumbs, eggs, and various seasonings, then formed into small balls. These meatballs are then simmered in a flavorful broth, often made from the meat's cooking juices, along with vegetables such as carrots, onions, and celery. The soup is typically served with a side of boiled potatoes or dumplings. Hinnig is often associated with the Christmas season in Germany, but it can be enjoyed year-round. The dish is known for its rich, hearty flavor and comforting nature, making it a popular choice for cold weather.
