The Essence of modernity brings a fresh twist to the classics!
In Mohringen, in the Stuttgart suburbs, Zur Linde restaurant, awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand distinction, serves traditional Swabian food, infused with a touch of modernity to make all the difference.
The finest Maultaschen in Stuttgart
Look no further for the finest Maultaschen in Stuttgart (see recipe below). Available in all shapes and sizes and served with potato salad, lentils or creamy choucroute, this traditional ravioli from the German region of Swabia will wow even the most discerning tastebuds.
The Trautwein brothers
Since 2015, the Trautwein brothers, Ferdinand and Maximilian, have overseen the family restaurant in a three hundred-year-old former post office. Fiercely proud of their Swabian heritage, the young brothers initially cut their teeth on Michelin-starred dining, at Burg Staufeneck in Salach and Top Air, Stuttgart, now closed. Today they bring a fresh twist to old regional favourites, including Spaetzle (a kind of noodle), Gaisburger Marsch (beef stew), veal tripe and oxtail and also Rinderrouladen (rolled beef).
Watch the interview of Ferdinand and Maximilian Trautwein, Zur Linde restaurant owners, and Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte ambassadors in Stuttgart.
Self-proclaimed Champagne enthusiasts and connoisseurs, Ferdinand and Maximilian Trautwein, both recently inducted to the ‘Chapitre des Coteaux’ Champagne brotherhood in Germany, have hit upon another way to breathe new life into their dishes, by serving them with Nicolas Feuillatte Champagnes.

Maultaschen Zur Linde recipe
Maultaschen is traditional ravioli from Swabia, a region in south-western Germany.
Ingredients :
300 g flour

20 g leeks
1 egg

Linde spice mix
Peel and chop the onion, then cook in a steamer for a few minutes.
Wash and chop the parsley, spinach and leeks.
Meanwhile, soak the bread in a small quantity of milk.
Transfer the mince, bacon, smoked sausage, spinach, bread, cooked onions, parsley and leeks into a meat grinder.
