The Figlmüller Schnitzel boasts a savory and crispy flavor profile, perfectly balanced by the tender pork within.
The dominant flavor is savory, derived from the high-quality pork loin. The breading, traditionally made with flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs, provides a satisfying crispiness and subtle toasted flavor. A touch of salt and pepper enhances the natural taste of the pork. Lemon wedges are typically served alongside, adding a refreshing citrus tang that cuts through the richness of the fried schnitzel.
