Well, I'm here now. What's for dinner?

Was ist das?

According to Wikipedia (first hit on Google):

Maultaschen (lit. muzzle bags) are a Swabian (Baden-Württemberg) specialty
food, consisting of an outer layer of pasta dough with a filling
traditionally made of minced meat, spinach, bread crumbs and onions and
flavored with parsley. They are similar to Italian ravioli, but larger,
each Maultasche being about 8-12cm across. A usual serving size is two to
four Maultaschen per person.

Maultaschen are rumored to have been invented by monks of the Maulbronn
monastery to conceal the fact that they were eating meat during lent. This
is reflected in the semi-humorous alternative Swabian name
"Herrgottsbscheißerle" (roughly: little ones who cheat the Lord).

Maultaschen are traditionally eaten either "geschmälzt" (cut into thin
slices, then fried with onions and eggs) or "in der Brühe" (simmered in
vegetable broth).

Today, Maultaschen are offered with a wide variety of fillings, ranging
from traditional over salmon to vegetarian versions filled, for instance,
with mushrooms and other vegetables.

In general it can be said that traditional, home-made Maultaschen often
contain much more parsley then the ready-made ones, which contain more
spinach and very little parsley.
