Like the **"Beugerl/Beigerl" during carnival**. **After the work is done**, when the fresh hay is dry and stowed away in the barn, there are the so-called **"Einheigkrapfen"**, the main meal for the woodworkers, also called **"Holzknechtnockn"**. For Christmas, the usual **veal sausage** is fried and **Grandma's vanilla croissants are served as dessert**. On **Good Friday,** the Protestant holiday, the delicious **"Pofesen"** are eaten in the Inner Salzkammergut. According to a legend, the real **"Kaiserschmarrn"** was cooked for the first time on a mountain pasture in Bad Goisern during the visit of the emperor. So **special dishes characterize a special custom** ...all year round!
