What is the German food 'himmel'?

Answer 1

There isn't a dish by the name of "himmel".

But the dish "Himmel und Hölle"does exist, it is also known as "Himmel und Erde".

"Heaven and Hell" and "Sky and Earth" are the translations.

Which is part is "heaven" and which part is "hell"or "earth" I am not certain,

but it does taste good.
