location in the region. and thanks to its location, the city has a very long and complex history. the 1st recorded settlements here date back to the 6th century. this market hall is a true melting pots. on the one hand, this is where you can come for a home, a bread, locally grown veggies and mushrooms straight from the forest. but there's so much more here, tease from around the wells, endless spices and cheese as a neat from all across europe. as for me, it's time to have lunch at a restaurant that aims to recreate, but most of the old school, traditional dishes. this is julia. she is a local guide, specializing in tours. and today she will share with us some of her knowledge about lots of distinctive squeezing. so, and i will, we will try spots bars to estimates from vermont and beats. and it is traditionally served to during christmas eve. mm hm. perfect. it's spicy and sour,

but truly even in some of its darkest creepy of school. and as it can find beautiful places like this. so you get a chance to visit, come and have a look for yourself. the christmas the festival opens up. and as we all know, the way to the halt is through the stomach. still need some inspiration will show you what to eat across europe over the past due periods. have you not yet decided what to cook for christmas dinner this year? or maybe you'd like to try something new. we selected 5 european holiday favorites . we start out with germany's quinta, central christmas dish roast goose with red cabbage and dumplings to associate me for island. it ought to be a free range. goes from there in terms of size, i'd recommend between 4 and a half to 5 and a half p low. so infringement, i know for the stuff that we take apples onions, salary stocks,

and finally chop ginger. then we read the goose with salt and pepper inside and out, add the stuffing and put it in the oven to bake for at least 3 hours. in the meantime, we chopped the red cabbage called blau code in southern germany and mix it with apples. we great the potatoes for the dumplings. this type of dumpling is typical of northern bavaria. only a quarter of the mixture is made of boiled potatoes. the rest of the potatoes are stirred in wrong. then it's rolled into dumplings and boiled in salted water. to keep the goose from drying out while in the oven, it has to be repeatedly base it in stock. this dish is in season mainly in december to kansas and been to always give a goose reach his full size in winter. the potatoes are harvested and red cabbages a winter bed simpleton loosely. so these 3 things go together wonderfully during this season. i just wonder about this of the roast goose is best when served as soon as it comes out of the on

the in poland. it's all about bureau keys. there an unofficial symbol of polish cuisine. the serena irena restaurant in warsaw specializes in these. don't please the to the center. i am here at the restaurant. we serve 15 different kinds of people. these goals. we have penalties and wild garlic in the cottage stuff and put into a cheese and not got the time if they have a special flavor. we also have sweet pillowcase with poppy seeds raisins and knocking at a time. you. there's a honey just right for the holiday season. our payroll gaze with mushrooms and sour crowd. the dough is made of flour, x oil and water to achieve the more intense flavor. some of the dr. mushrooms are ground to a fine powder,

to mushrooms sauerkraut and mushroom powdered are briefly roasted and mixed well. now they corrode, these can be pinched together by hand and boiling water, no more than 3 or 4 minutes, so they don't get sante. did all get the keys or something you don't forget you have a ship on lunch, but they simply make people happy. same or you freshman? yeah. my 1st i go now we move on to sweden where a juicy christmas time is an essential part of the christmas buffet called the us board. the christmas table is the most important thing for the swedish christmas. we herring's we solomon and of course we the uniform, kept the christmas included in the ross with the pickles ham are onions, studded with cloves, bailey and white pepper. depending on the size, it can take about an hour and a half to bake to

a temperature inside the home of $72.00 degrees celsius. the big tim has to cool for an hour or 2 before it can be coated with a mixture of sweet in sell a mustard and sugar. but 1st, the outermost layers of fat has to be cut away from the home. i always do some bread crumbs before the cold because otherwise it wants the traditionally, the use wink carved in thin slices is the main event of every swedish christmas buffet. a gloss of piping hot gloves heated spiced wine goes best with it. the cold out, the swiss warm up with a cheese fondue. traditionally, it served in a candle a pot. usually a ceramic one that's kept heated. the diners spear ryan wheat bread on lawn phone to forks and done some in the melted cheese. you'll need choose from the lifeline,

cornstarch lemon, garlic, cherry, brandy and pepper for a classic cheese phone. do. first, it's a good idea to great the cheese. this recipe calls for various kinds. i know one is from the in gardena valley, all the cheese is on test drive to outline cheese from cal milk. the blend makes but the right fund. 200. the pod is coated with garlic to give it some extra flavor . next, the corn starch wipe, wine and lemon juice, or mix together and poured onto the grated cheese. excuse me, the shots, and now we add a little black pepper. and the final ingredient is to send to leaders of cherry brandy. a medium size thorough cheese fondue over medium heat. it is not too hot too high. this consistencies in the uniform window. save while

a swiss cheese on the front. we top it off with a dessert from britain christmas pudding. no holiday dinner is complete. without it . you'll need flour, so it shows up x. and then before in wave of fruits you're going to want. and then i hope traditionally just waiting brandy, both ineligible brandy, some spouts. and petrol. jimenez, which is the chevy. many families with up the christmas putting weeks in advance. so it will be well state give us the spice of june. so yeah, each pressing the family would get ones that would space clockwise. the christmas pudding is steve and then some day and brandy. so what kinds of dishes will you have for your holiday dinner?

the christmas case kind of tony has a long tradition in italy. it comes in different shapes and sizes. but did you know that some of the best kind of tony in the country is made in a prison? behind these bars in the city of patio in northern italy, prisoners craft exquisite big treats. the bakers are hardened criminals with long prison sentences. we aren't allowed to share their names or crimes because i've been in this prison for 14 years. god said that's what i'm paying for what i did back in 20082010 though i used to have some real issues. so for what i mean those, i definitely made a big mistake, but i've changed and i just keep learning your starting point for now. they're mostly bacon. county, tony,

a traditional italian christmas. kate the punny. tony from prestige. s e a. jump to in the prison or some of the best in italy. even po francis has ordered some said, which is not his real name is proud of his success. he's worked here for 3 and a half years. we make great products and i'm honored to be able to do this work. it does me good to put myself into my work here, murders my fios, he and others who have committed serious crimes are imprisoned here. only those with good conduct, but still facing long sentences can work is baker's. otherwise, it's not worth it to train them. the head, pastry chef counts the knives at the end of each day, just to be on the safe side. here they also learn to follow defined rules and schedules, and to respect their superiors. you need to be humble,

patient and ready to learn, or you won't make it far in here. and pony tony does require patience. it takes 72 hours to make the sto, traditionally candied orange peels and raisins are added, but also chocolate ginger, fix, and lavender. my favorite type is with, i'm a retina and new get. everyone has their favorite pen to tony, depending on their taste. and i think we make 1400 a day their shift begins at 4 in the morning. it takes 3 days before the pony tony is done and in its typical paper wrapping. once they're out of the oven. so you then, his fellow baker's hang the cakes upside down. we turned them over fresh out of the oven. that helps them keep their round shape while cooling as well for them of the inmates send their finished plenty, tony all over the world. $100000.00

a year starting at 30 euros apiece. plus each of the a jo to has even been hosting a cafe for a year now in the center of pod why the company is making a profit. almost everything here is from the prisons. pastry shop. many customers have no idea these fine trees were baked by criminals. really nice. are they really, are they good faith for this? so i know the cakes were made in prison. that makes them all the better and hopefully helps the people. and besides, they're excellent qualities. the inmate bakers do actually have regular employment contracts and they receive a proper salary my way just don't just help me but also my family. they need the money. many of the prisoners send a pony tony home for christmas on days. when i get out and i can work as

a pastry baker in the past each other. yeah. yeah. and i'm studying at a hotel management school so i can enter that profession later. and it's not just a dream for so he'd very few of the former prison bakers end up returning to a life of crime. one has even opened his own pastry shop, straight from the street at bowie to u. d. w. fill in for us, discover one of the most vibrant cities in your experience was hot in buildings clubbing st. explode the cities hidden gems, and learn to understand some peculiar dream and habits. pals create is a here for you to join us now at the w underscore. buildings fresh on take talks certainly seen in germany a christmas time town, which styles a note over the wells. they come from

a small town called handbook in eastern germany, but they have a long history. we went there to find out more info comes to i just loved driving through the towns before christmas and seeing all the stars hanging like this down there. so i can give you this job, i put up the big paper star every year and then place the little ones on the window around christmas time. is that stuff and just learn how to make these kinds of stars in school. and i think it's a really big part of our identity size that we've had. the stars named after the small town hand, who in the very east of germany, saxony region are shipped all over the world as christmas decorations. around 700000 are created every year old by hand. it takes you on a bond around one and a half hours to make one of her limited edition small stars.

the this view at least this is the most difficult part of the folding. that's what it's the folding that really counts. getting that perfect cone with a beautiful tip, the kind of, you know, and making the edges fit together. exactly, so that the star hasn't even shakes down classmates. as the stars originated in the moravian church of the brethren, one of the oldest protestant denominations and christianity are from dockens. and the oldest record of the stars being made in hand. hood schools, dates back to 1810, now think about was seemingly as a part of teaching geometry to children, combustible is. and when i, myself was a student that handled school in clinic said we also learned this an our math class . now this down simple, easy, extraordinary use of the star symbolizes jesus christ to i can be reached. he says

it's actually our most important symbol. not just a hint and but really a sign of god's lives shining into the darkness. and jesus christ coming to us. this happened to him sounds that big guy worked on the star myself. i would, we made it in our congregation with a large group of 40 people and cut out the individual points and glued them together. always. there are a lot of wonderful memories associated with it. you know, when you have a 1925 businessman peter hensley, could be filed of patents for the 25 pointed star, and it's occurring shape nearly a century later. the hand who'd factory greets more than $60000.00 star lovers each year for behind the scenes look at how the stars come together or to crap their own doesn't need to complete. it's not that hard once you get the hang of it and get it . yeah. they're just wonderful to look at the house and you get

a warm welcome when you come home, so to speak. spanish, i think that's the beauty of the star system. the professionals also custom make stars in different sizes for churches, christmas, markets, or shopping malls. these are made from plastic for longer durability, like this one, measuring almost 2 meters across the wall. it's leaky, all in this number slips and i used to work in the streets unmarked and dressed and for many years. and i can see the tower of the file and choose the church from our sales booth and click and at the top of the church, there was of course, a large yellow, a 19 type star hanging there, which i helped to make. boy, that always may be proud how's this does help on this one trunk starts off with or large or small for many people around the world, the christmas it arrives with a glow of a hand hoot star. slat

dogs at the very resent you into animals. they can withstand sub 0 temperatures and to live at the top performance in the middle of ice and snow. only the past competes in adults that raised nicole or the se in the west of france. in the fringe out the region of civil house, the dogs lead race like haul and dirty c this is louis mormon is one of $66.00 musters taking part. she and her team of dogs are competing in the open category. the race spends nearly 400 kilometers, split up into 10 stages. this is kevin. he is 4 years old. he goes as the leader. he's not the fastest leader, but he's a very safe leader. and there is a very difficult route that we're going. so it's nice to have a,

a safe one that gets born always in my living room. kind of like a new system, a ride from the a little in norway, with 12 european sled dogs. she loves her dogs, and that even one her a special award as the musher who took the best care of her team during one of the stages. before racing off, the dogs always get a little something to eat, mostly protein. the real feast comes after the race, the flood dog race is may still often be considered a male domain. but women one, several of the top places in the 1st stages of this year's edition. it's generally dominated by men, especially the in the big clauses on top level, there is still more men, but there's more women coming. i just have to trust your team and the team. so you

have to trust me and then it doesn't matter which gender you are really. the critics often deem sled dog race has to be harmful to the animals health. but at lego hondo, the say a 12 person veterinary team takes care of the dogs. the staff examines then before each stage and if there's the slightest health concern, the dogs are not allowed to race full way. yeah. oh, don't seem to, i don't see any signs of animal cruelty in this discipline. somebody with one simple reason. you just look at the dogs, they get all excited and play around together. they run really fast at the beginning and give it their all cause they just wanna run northeast and get it here in the winter sport resort is a loan to the stage 6 is about to get started. the looped route spends 30 kilometers with the starting and finish line in the same place. cisco and her assistants are harnessing the excited dogs, the

hand off they go. there is no holding back. these dogs not gone to the se, is considered an extremely tough race covering a difference in the altitude of 12000 meters. the sport is also physically demanding for the measures. they have to stick to the defined route and late into the curves with their dogs. when they go up hill, the most use for the dogs on going down hill. they break it takes is all about 2 hours to finish this stage coming in 6. i very happy. yeah, we're running good. so yeah, i have a problem that they're going a little bit slow enough else, but they just need training that because i have a very young team, so they need to learn type push

a little bit harder in the appeals. they were born in very strong, downhill, and i had to really work to keep the flags where it's supposed to be. right. but yes, no problems. no, nothing's always nice to have a clean teen run. no problem. after the race the dumpster fed and enjoy a good dose of pen, man ended up coming in sort of overall. and if all goes to plan, she and her hands will compete again next year the and i'd say for now from your max, they're all even more exciting stories from europe on our social media channels. we wish you very happy holidays by and see you next time the the

clemency rise. listen, the sensitive to iceland steals its way into each of these interpretations. the exceptional piano, ellen and vance. next on d. w. no flag in and steal economical. the

new z, all the homes that goes all out on hybrid technology of in addition to the s u, v. range, 40 yet comfortable. but is it also efficient to everyday use in 16 minutes on dw, the how many platforms can you handle single tenuously without having the feeling that it's just too much you might see me. how much can we do simultaneously?

multitasking diesel, modern man. because if we do too much, we get it all wrong. we mess things up, risking brain damage. so let's stop this self sabotage, humans and multitasking. watching our new to v w documentary, the license is a special case. what i sent us for me is that it has a solitary policy. the i tried to play every concert like it was my kind of get hold. thank you or bernard for the money. thank you. i really try to play those concepts like my life depended on the.
