FAQ
Who is this book for?
This eBook is perfect for anyone with a passion for German food culture—whether you’re a beginner, an experienced cook, or simply someone looking to reconnect with your German heritage.
Are the recipes in imperial or metric?
They are available in both. The ingredients are listed in metric measurements but there are conversions for our US readers in imperial cups and ounces as well.
Are these recipes on your website?
Some but not all! There are a few cookbook-exclusive recipes. The German Christmas baking ebook contains readers’ favorites from MyDinner.co.uk. The ebook can be accessed from your device without any pesky advertisement.
Most recipes have been made and trusted by our readers. This is a great way for readers to support our website.
Do you have recipe videos for each recipe?
No, but I am working on it! Most recipes will have additional step-by-step images on the website and there is a link at the bottom of each page to the appropriate webpage should you need more info or want to learn more about the cultural background of the recipe.
What format will I receive it in?
This is a hardback book with a glossy cover. It comes in US Letter size: 216mm x 279mm / 8.5" x 11". The inside pages are printed on white 80gsm quality paper.
Why can I not pay British pounds or Canadian dollars?
My shop system, Payhip, doesn't support different currencies. I chose US dollars since most readers are in the US. Your bank will automatically convert it for you, so there's nothing you need to do.
