I receive many emails a month from my visitors looking for a wonderful German food recipe they have tried, but alas do not have the recipe or don't know the name.
Now, you can submit your recipe request here which will be shared with hundreds of other German recipe lovers from around the world. We will try and help you find the recipe you are looking for.
1. Use my Recipe Search to see whether the recipe you are requesting is already published elsewhere on this website. You will find it
here at the top of my German desserts page.
By the way, if it turns out that you have a recipe someone else is looking for, please send it to them in a Comment, and the person who made the request will be notified.
The more information you can give about the recipe, the greater the chance that someone will respond with a comment. A request needs to contain enough information to help someone identify the recipe and want to give it to you. Requests that are too brief won't be published.
You might also like to include a little bit about yourself, your memory of the German recipe and why you would like to find it.
Please send us your lost recipe request.
We would love to help you find it.
1. Enter the German recipe name. This will help people to find your recipe request page when they search for it. If you don't know the name then I will try and name it appropriately from the information you have given.
2. Enter your German recipe request. Share as much information as you want.
