**SCHNITZEL RECIPE**
Thin pieces (or pieces you can cut thin) of lean, tender meat, like veal cutlets, pork loin chops or chicken breast (it's gotta be veal for Weiner schnitzel)
salt
pepper
flour
egg (with maybe some mustard mixed in)
breadcrumbs (I recommend panko that you process into a fine powder)
oil (clarified butter or lard would be traditional, but a neutral frying oil would be fine)
parsley for garnish (optional)
lemon for garnish (not optional)
If your meat isn't already really thin, cut it thin, then cover it with plastic wrap and pound it with something smooth and heavy until it's as thin as you can get it without tearing it apart. Season with salt and pepper. Dust in the flour and knock off any excess. Dip in the beaten egg and knock off any excess. Coat in breadcrumbs, but be gentle - don't press the meat into the crumbs.
Heat half an inch (1 cm) of oil at most (and probably a little less) over medium-high heat. Dip the edge of the meat into the oil. If it doesn't sizzle, get the oil hotter. If it goes totally crazy, turn the heat down. Fry the cutlets on each side until brown, flipping frequently so that you can see if anything is burning. There should be enough fat in the pan to where the meat is floating, but not submerged. As soon as they look done on the outside, they'll almost certainly be done on the inside. Drain on a rack or paper towels. Top with optional parsley and mandatory fresh lemon juice at the table.
**CLARIFIED BUTTER RECIPE**
Put your butter (half a pound or 227g is a good amount for frying some schnitzel) into a narrow pot and turn the heat on medium-low. Wait until the butter melts and then seems to boil out most of its water - about half an hour. If the butter isn't really boiling, you can turn up the heat, but you'll prob need to turn it back down again when the bubbling starts to slow - it can easily burn once most of the water is out. When the.bubbling has slowed down a lot, either stop, or let the milk solids brown a bit (that's ghee). Strain twice through a sieve with a paper towel in it to get out all the milk sugars and proteins.
**CUCUMBER SALAD RECIPE**
1 English cucumber (or two of a smaller variety)
1/2 a red onion
any neutral vinegar
any neutral oil (or replace the oil with sour cream)
fresh dill
salt
pepper
sugar
Thinly slice the cucumber and onion and combine in a bowl. Chop up the dill and put it in. Give it a pinch of salt and pepper, and a big pinch or two of sugar. Splash in maybe a tablespoon each of vinegar and oil to start with. If replacing the oil with sour cream, you might want about half a cup (120 ml). Stir thoroughly and let sit in the fridge for a few hours, or overnight. Stir again and taste. Add more of whatever it needs. - Навчання та стиль

The traditional way of making it is the most yummy btw. ;-)
Some of the best dishes I have made are ones that deviate from tradition. I use the traditional way as a baseline and then adjust it to my specific tastes. I honestly don’t care what other people would think about what I have made, because for myself it tastes the best.

"The skins have not been waxed, so they're good to eat without peeling"
Apparently I've been eating wax in my cucumbers for 30 years and never minded. In fact the wax is probably one of the things I enjoy.

Just throw them under hot water for a minute or two when washing, it'll get rid of wax n you won't need to peel them then
Why is no one talking about how he got a double yoked egg?
That’s awesome
I was just going to comment that
I think my chickens are special....i've had 3 of those this month...
Coincidence... I am a member of a chicken grower group and someone posted a photo of a egg with 3 yolks.... Then other 3 people... Then one woman posted a photo of an egg with 3 medium and 2 small ones..... So yeah... That was amazing :)))
Nah he probably bought a GMO'd batch of them coz I live in the UAE and I got like around 30-ish double yolks
dude no kidding, couple of weeks ago i was making some cake with my wife that needed quite a few eggs (i think 8) and the first FIVE eggs i cracked had a double yogue in them hehe. luck has been coming around so far lol
Some usefull tipps from a german dude
1.spray water on the meat before breading, the steam will create bubbles under the crust extra crispy and tasty ;)
2. put the meat in flour first before adding egg yolk
3. Use a pot instead of a pan way easier for frying, also needed for shaking the pot.
4. Shake your Schnitzel ! by rocking your pot you create little bubbles under the crust making it a real Wiener Schnitzel .
You dont have to follow these instructions but they tend to create a more authentic product.
ksk?😂
Kinda sad that it needed a German pointing it out..., but yes - bubbles underneath the crust is key for authenticity!!!
As an austrian, your cutting techniques of the different meats/thicknesses is perfect, it's as if you learned from oma (grandma) herself. Your fresh breadcrumbs are of course the most authentic but the blitzed panko looks grea too (i sadly can't get it here but we have our own breadcrumb industry). What i can't excuse is no "soufliereing", you need no technique, just keep the pan in motion while frying and only one flip, you know you have enough agitation if the crust lifts from the meat. And of course in central europe we serve our carb covered meat with more carbs, like potato salad or parsley potatos, but cucumber or green salad is fine. A wedge of lemon is mandatory and some cranberry jam is a great addition. The greatest schnitzel can be drenched in the juice of a whole lemon and still sound crispy when scraping your knife over it.
The best way to eat carb-covered, fat-fried protein is with fat-infused carbs. /s
Why import cranberries if we have perfectly tasty cowberries here
Wouldn't Lingonberries more appropriate for Germany/Austria? Cranberries are from America. I'd definitely use them since they are very easy to find here in the states but they are probably much more difficult to find in Europe.
@@CrownedFalcon00 Yes you are correct, we use Lingonberries here and you rarely find cranberry stuff outside of specialty stores here. I said cranberry since i assumed more people would know those and i think they are exchangable enough for the purpose (Lingon are a bit more tart/sour i believe)
@@uzmeyer1752Haha, No worries! I've had both Lingonberry and Cranberry (Sometimes you can find lingonberry here in the Northeast US). They are very similar. I think they are in the same family of plant! Very Tart, Astringent Berry. IMHO Lingonberries are a bit more mellow. Maybe a little bit more sweetness and a bit less astringency. I think their sourness is similar, perhaps the lingonberries are a bit more tart, but far less astringent and a bit sweeter than cranberries. Cranberries are very hard to eat without some processing due to their astringency. I can eat lingonberries raw (though it isn't very pleasant unless you like really acidic food). They are definitely interchangeable in recipes. The flavor is different but you get a very similar effect in a dish.
I can confirm this recipe is quite delectable and the cucumber salad is a nice fresh addition I made it just now and it is definitely a new member of the clean plate club

my mom cooks the pork version all the time and we love it.

sometimes baked potato instead both are pretty nice.
There is a good reason why the Austrians don't constantly flip their Schnitzels. The reason being that they keep the pan moving constantly, so that the hot oil would go over the top of the Schnitzels (as a matter of fact, in this video, there's not enough oil in the pan). This technique is called "Soufflieren" in German. What it does is that it helps puff up the breading, creating air bubbles between the meat and the breading which also helps crisp up the breading. When it's still attached to the meat, this doesn't happen properly and the bread ingredient tends to turn out soggy. The puffed up crispy breading makes the Schnitzel feel less heavy and the contrast between the crispy breading and the the meat gives a very good satisfying mouthfeel. Flipping constantly is definitely a mistake. Schnitzels do cook quickly but not as quickly that you'd like need to check every few seconds. Turning a maximum of 3 times during the cook will also get you there just fine.

Someone did their homework. A fine Vienna Schnitzel tho I can reccomend 3 things there
1. Before I started breading I wet my hands and moisturize the meat a bit so the flour sticks less this makes the crush to less stick to the meat and you get that desireble air Pockets.
2. You can add some cream to the eggs to makes it lighter in colour.
3. If you pan fry it your amout of fat Was spot on. But I reccomend a higher pot to do it and shake it so the hot fat washes over the Schnitzel. Just Rock it back and forth but watch put not to spill. Turn once. And let it drip on a rack with papertowel. You can let it rest in the oben at 55°C so you can make all Schnitzel as youre making out at arround 2 Schnitzel at a time.
But damn youre Spot on. I reccomen some cranberry jam on side in Austria its called Preiselbeeren.
On the mustard part: There is a very traditional Schnitzel from Munich, so its called "Münchner Schnitzel". Its typically pork and you put sweet mustard and horseradish on it, but not with the egg, you rubb it on the meat after seasoning it and before dipping it in flour. I absolutely love the mild mustard and horseradish flavour, its one of my favourite kinds of Schnitzel even if its not that popular even in Germany.

Austrian here! This is BY FAR the best and most authentic take on Wiener Schnitzel on any English language channel I have seen so far! Meat: yes, veal is the original, but pork, turkey and and chicken are way more common because of cost. Sauce: yes, lemon is fine, but please, nothing else! Side: potato or cucumber salad are pretty common, even though I do not like salad and very much prefer some form of rice or potatoes. And from my experience, in Austria the most popular side to go with Schnitzel would be fries. Thumbs up!
In my case no fries but Erdäpfelsalat or Gurkensalat. The Schnitzel's breading is dry and crispy already. 🙂
Idk looks kinda fake to me. Especially the salad.

One of the most important technics for Schnitzel is "shaking" or moving the pan while frying. Your breading will be way better and make "waves".
^this guy knows his stuff
Yeah but he isn't a ninth degree schnitzel chef
@@joshuaurbany6468 Keeping your pan moving isn't that hard.
@@phoenix8984 moving a pan itself isn't hard, but moving a pan of hot oil can be hard and dangerous if you've never done it.
I looked up a professional schnitzel video. He has some inexperienced guy try to move the pan and he sloshes the oil all over. I also noticed his pan was deeper and taller than Adam's pan, which looks like it helps to contain the oil. Sloshing oil in a shallow pan doesn't sound easy or safe, so it's understandable why Adam didn't attempt it.
@@sweetkittykat2000 You got a point with the deeper pan. I have a deeper pan and most professional cooks have a cast iron or something like that. But with Adams pan its probably harder to do. But if you use a deeper pan I can recommend it.
Hey Adam, when I was in Poland, my neighbour showed me something which I thought was ingenious. She would make schnitzel but would combine a bit of flour with the egg, sort of like the regular process of normal breading flour -> egg -> breadcrumb. She added flour till the consistency was a little thick but still liquidy just to coat the outside, let some of it drain off it theres a bit much, then she would go right into the breadcrumbs. Thought this was a brilliant way to bread things because I absolutely hate having to bread a ton of things in restaurant using the old method.
Wanted you to try this method out next time you bread something and tell me what you think!
That works, its the faster way many buffet style restaurants do, but you wont get air bubbles between meat and breadcumbs this way which is what you want.
That's how my romanian grandma makes them. It's much faster than dipping them in flour then in the mixed eggs and saves time if you're in hurry.
Another thing to try is using crushed cornflakes. Gives it a nice crunch.
Don't let this go to your head Adam, but I've got to hand it to you: you absolutely make the best videos: you often start with a brief history of the recipe, you speed up the video when it makes sense, you give intelligent narration with plenty of practical tips, you add humor and you don't take yourself too seriously.

Just in case anybody ever visits Germany: "Wiener Schnitzel" is a protected term and has to be made of veal, but "Schnitzel Wiener Art" (literally, Vienna style Schnitzel) isn't and restaurants usually specify which kind of meat it is.
Edit: As GermanDude mentioned below, "Wiener Schnitzel vom Schwein" (lit. Vienna Schnitzel made of pork) is also a valid term for non-veal alternatives. As long as there's no confusion with the "real" Wiener Schnitzel then anything goes, apparently.
Also, according to legend (attributed mostly to famous austrian chef Reinhard Gerer), for it to be a real Wiener Schnitzel it should be "flat as a letter and shouldn't leave any fat on your pants if you sit on it." And yes, it's meant to be bland (or in more positive terms, stand on its own), overseasoning is considered a sign that you're trying to hide a cheap or, worse, expired cut of meat.
Sorry for spamming potentially useless trivia, but I felt like if there's a video on youtube I'm qualified to comment on, it's this one xD Thanks as usual for making me hungry in the middle of the night
Dude Good Schnitzel, German or Austrian is worth it. God tier
Ha, that's interesting that the original intent of the recipe was more to male the meat shine than the flavor, but if you think about it that makes perfect sense.
All of those Germanic and northern European nations have roots in hunter gatherer societies where meat and high caloric foods were favored and something to be proud about l... that and exotic spices were much harder to come by.

"9th degree Schnitzel Master"
I can tell from how he perfectly pronounces Wiener that this is going to be a good vid
Yeah but then he says SchweineNschnitzel -.- was a good vid nonetheless
Great recipe! I would really recommend also frying in a more traditional way, where the schnitzel is fully submerged. The nice thing about a good schnitzel is the air pockets under the crust and you can really achieve that when the schnitzel is always submerged and never touching the bottom. You should still move it to make sure only hot fat is touching the top, but never flip. With ghee, you can filter and re-use so you don't spill too much of that precious fat.
Sounds like nitpicking, but if you've ever been to Vienna or one of the better restaurants in Germany, you'll recognize that a schnitzel has a smooth gold colour over its entire exteriour.
I love the schnitzel and the new shirt. I cannot wait to get one, an absolute necessity
what does the shirt mean? i didn't get it
Protip i learned in a highend - german restaurant:
add some fennel seeds to the cucumber salads! You could caramelize them too and have some crunch:)
celery seeds are good, too!
And instead of sour cream, yogurt or quark as base for the dressing. No mayo, gotta keep it light to be a balance for the fatty, starchy meat.
Hey Adam,
I think your video really covers the basics of Schnitzel-making but here are two tricks I learned making a lot of them for family:
1. Spraying your meat with water:
Before you add the flour, spray the meat lightly with water. Then proceed with egg and breadcrumbs.
The water will evaporate when dropped into the oil and this will create a very light and airy crust.
2. Shaking the pan
As you said the "Schnitzel-Masters' do it. It is done to help the breading seperate from the meat, becoming more airy with the nice big bubbles.
As you mentioned this video covers the basics, but with these two tricks it will become infinitly better.
I love it. The whole time I was watching I was comparing these to a massive and delicious Indiana breaded tenderloin. So glad to hear you mentioned it!
this brought back so many memories of eating german food at my grandma's house when I was young
I love how all the german people come here when they see schnitzel in the title.
SaucyPS you know it’s kinda nice all of them are just saying it’s pretty spot on recommended a few different things and side dishes unlike when he makes Indian or anytime of French or Italian dish lol.

"Rada rada" he died in chowder's arm's. was a sad day that one.
My Austrian grandmother used to make "gurken salad," accent on the second syllable. Cucumber salad. Regular cucumbers, sliced thin, then quite a bit of salt, let sit. Osmosis removes water from the slices, they become limp. After an hour or so, the slices were washed repeatedly. Then some oil, vinegar, and yes, ketchup!
I copied the use of English cukes......I've never bought one before!......sliced thin on my plantain slicer. Used the red onion. Chose to go with classic vinaigrette, olive oil, lime juice, a touch of sugar and mustard. I also added "a bit" of blue cheese dressing to add some flavor.
Excellent, thank you Adam. You are DEFINITELY THE BEST COOKING CHANNEL OUT THERE!
I think it would be even better using the salt system I described above. Next time.
The cucumber salad in this videos makes and amazing sandwich toping.
Hello Adam,
My name is Adam too and I wanted to show you how you can make an extremely crispy chicken Wiener Schnitzel. I completed my internship at a restaurant almost 2 years ago and they let me eat something during the break. I was allowed to choose a dish from the menu and what I had chosen was a Wiener Schnitzel. But what I didn't know was that they used raw corn flakes instead of bread grains. And after I was allowed to make it myself I tried it and it tasted so delicious and it was also extremely crispy. It would be cool if you would try to recreate that dish in a video of yours. Thank you and greetings from Vienna.
My local burger king does that, in their crispy chicken sandwiches. Its great.
"Hello Adam, my name is Adam too..."
That's my favorite way to start off a comment now, thanks
Like the crushed corn flakes myself but more on game like elk or so...
Mind blown! Vielen dank
PURE GENIUS. This is very informative. Thank you!
Adam: *makes anything fried* Me: “Oh he’s gonna use Panko.”
Love your videos right to the point even with explanations thank you
Gonna make the schnitzel tomorrow🙂
Because I was multitasking, I was watching this while listening to something else. It was still very easy to follow. Great job!

Adam: you want to see what's on the back?!?!?
Me: you have massive lats?
Adam: nothing!
I wouldn't use the word "massive," but I noticed that too. He's been working hard!
He highkey flexing those. The shirt is just a gimmick not to show the flexing part as much
Anyone know what the shirt means lol all i can tell is white win drumstick look or syrup chicken go

That traditional "shaking method" (called "soufflieren") is quite easy. You move the pan around in a circular motion on the heat, making the Schnitzel constantly moving in the fat (I'd say your amount was quite right). This way, air gets into the breading and it enflates, creating the traditional and (for a Wiener Schnitzel) absolutely necessary bubbles. Additionally, fat gets on the upper side and makes it fry evenly without the constant flipping. This technique really lifts your Schnitzel to new hights.
I would recommend adding some milk to the eggs and using a 50/50 blend Butterschmalz (Gee) and vegetable oil. Only do one Schnitzel at the time and try to shake the pan a little to make the breading separate from the meat or as we call it soufflieren.
There are also other tricks like putting the pounded meat into an ice bath or squeeze some lemon on the fresh meat.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed that the correct way is to gently shake the pan while it cooks to create “the wave”
Adam: "English cucumbers"
Me, a Brit: We have different cucumbers?!!
American cucumbers(or just the rest of the worlds cucumbers, I dunno) are alot wetter, and less dense than english cucumbers. *brits would call it a grill*
In germany we have the exact same cucumbers
in germany we call them salad cucumbers
As a German I was thinking the same. All cucumbers in Germany are "English"
Well we thought we would let the Brits have something after all the colonization... so ......Cucumbers, you're welcome!!!
A few comments from a German Schnitzel eater:
1. The plastic foil is not used for hygienic purposes. It protects the meat from being torn apart when flattening it.
2. Stop turning the meat again and again and use a bigger skillet. Turning the Schnitzel takes too long to get it colored and it will turn out dry. As you already stated yourself, the meat has to swim / float in the oil. Use a big skillet so the meat can move around. Put the Schnitzel in the skillet and while it's floating and browning on the lower side, keep pouring hot oil over the upper side. That way the meat is cooking from both sides at once and will turn out perfectly done but still moist when it is browned. That way you also get the typical bubbles on the crust.
The process is shown here: ua-cam.com/video/tGoDlBAzJIY/v-deo.html
They turn it once which isn't really necessary. But you get the idea.
3. The oil vs cleared butter vs lard thing is almost religious. The truth is, there is no right and no wrong fat / oil to make a Schnitzel. I'm in the cleared butter team, I simply like that butter taste. But any mostly neutral tasting vegetable oil (like sunflower oil) is perfectly fine too. Lard is quite unusual where I live. I can't remember heaving been served a Schnitzel made with lard.
4. A small tip on how to know if the oil is hot enough to sear your meat: Use something made of uncoated, natural wood (like a wooden spatula or spoon). Put it into the hot oil. If there are small bubbles forming on the wood, it's hot enough to start searing.
I find things taste better fried in lard.
I highly advise that nobody shakes a pan of boiling oil in their home kitchen like the PROFESSIONAL CHEF did in the video linked!
@@PinkMonkeyBird There's a reason those Lyonaisse skillets have rather tall side walls. Some models are also available with extra high side walls. If you're not comfortable with shaking the skillet safely, simply pour the oil over the meat with a spoon. The results are the same.
@@PinkMonkeyBird just baste it with a spoon
@@PinkMonkeyBird just use a pot
The lemon is definitely the magic in there... as a Wiener Schnitzel officionado I can confirm it is not finished without it.
Came to see the salad, added to favorites for the schnitzels. Creamy cuke salad tastes great.

Tip from someone who’s been making this for decades: smear a little mustard on the meat before you bread. Does not taste like mustard at all but makes the schnitzel taste AMAZING and soooo juicy (also, I really like the garlic mustard aioli from trader joes for this)
Edit: I commented this before watching the full video... sorry but I'll leave it anyway (and plz stop hating on me... it was an honest mistake)

He said that with the chicken one i think
Dear Adam: as a Bavarian, I can confirm that mustard schnitzel is actually a thing. It's called Münchner Schnitzel, but you'd normally make that with Pork. Add some horseradish for good measure and you got yourself an authentic German Schnitzel varint that you can actually find in almost any "Wirtshaus" in Munich. It's definitely a notable twist on the original recipe, highly recommend.
In Poland we have something similar called "Schab". It's breaded pork cutlets served with cucumbers in cream called mizeria and boiled potatoes with Dill. Absolutely to die for.
Calling schabowy a schab is mighty confusing. I wonder how localised that name is
Instructions unclear the schnitzel I made proceeded to yell "Rada, Rada" at me.
I dont get it

Bins nd schnitzel from chowder
@@Noxust dafuq is chowder im from germany dude xD
@@generaldernappe It was a weird cartoon.
Pretty spot on! Most austrian restaurants also serve cooked potatoes, fried with parsley or rice. I often choose rice, since that compliments the savory greasiness pretty well. Also, you don't need any special equipment to flatten the meat. Any flat object, like a pan totally does the trick.
He said that you can use a rolling pin or a skillet to flatten the meat.
Here right next to you in Hungary, we like eating your meal with potatoes. Potatoes of any shape and form. Oven fried. Boiled. Deep fried. Double baked. You name, mostly fries though.
I use a pyrex measuring cup (it's heavy and has a convenient handle) to flatten it out.
In Romania we serve them with potato purée. It tastes amazing together.

Americans be like: "this is so bland where is the seasoning"
Germans be like: "in the beer you drink with this"

This was hard to understand because you used the wrong meme format
@Tom S. Tea americans: "this is so bland, where is the seasoning"
Germans: "the seasoning is in the beer you drink with it"
@@presentmic3605
It's pretty clear what they are trying to say, and the format doesn't really stray far from the original meme.
Not saying it's especially funny, but If you can only understand a joke when it adheres to an exact meme format, you're kind of dumb.

I’ve always made the chicken one with schmaltz. That looks delicious with the mustard. Thanks!
"They arrive in plastic because the skins have not been waxed."
*You wax your cucumbers?*
I assume it refers to a thin wax coating to keep away insects
Mason S i think it also makes it shiny or something
Apples also sometimes have additional wax added (they already have wax naturally) for added insect protections

I have a stone nut grinder and it works amazingly well for grinding panko or soda crackers into a very fine dust.
Just had one of these (Adam's) vids pop up on my recommendeds and I am in the middle of a binge of these vids... As a person who enjoys cooking this vid makes me want to try making schnitzel now... The closest I've come to making anything like this is frying cubed steak... Great video!
