Are these vegan, except for the honey?
And would it be possible to make these vegan versions using pear syrup?
Hello di-or
Willisauer Ringli are vegan—with the exception of the honey. However, the recipe cannot simply be adapted. Willisauer Ringli have been included in the inventory of Switzerland’s culinary heritage; they may only be produced in Willisau and traditionally contain the ingredients sugar, water, flour, lemon and orange zest, honey, and salt.

Where are the Willisauer Ringli made?

In Basel! That's why they're called.....

Funny comment Mil: Willisauer Ringli can only be made in Willisau. However, as the Rathausbäckerei has not existed for some time as far as I know (you can sometimes make a mistake), I wonder who makes the Ringli and where. The original recipe for Willisauer Ringli has nothing to do with the Rathausbäckerei (the Rathausbäckerei may have its own recipe, but not the original). Either way, I think the Migros packaging information is misleading. I look forward to an answer. PS: Incidentally, I think it's a shame that the "Rathausbäckerei" in Willisau no longer exists; in my humble opinion, its bread was the best in town.

So if it's not from HUG in Willisau, then it will probably come from a JOWA bakery. In my opinion, MIDOR products would come in a different packaging or on the shelf ...
Guest
Hug would be a possibility, that's true. Or perhaps the Weibel or Schwegler bakeries? Although I would be surprised if they referred to a different bakery in each case. Various things are possible.
The online store states: Manufacturer: Midor AG: https://www.migros-shop.de/echte-willisauer-ringli
Guest
... a possible answer, but Midor AG does not (to my knowledge) have a production site in Willisau...
Willisauer Ringli must come from Willisau (court order from 1940). Migros-Online DE information must be wrong, my guess: "HUG" produces the Ringli for Migros.
Guest
As far as I know, the packaging itself also says Midor... Hug would be possible and also ok. However, it is not ok to refer to the "original recipe". The court decision you quoted Scirocco was also about this question.
@concrakeIt's well known! Read the product information:Willisau is a small country town in the canton of Lucerne in central Switzerland. The local bakers have secured the right that only the "Ringli" that are produced in the town itself are considered "genuine Willisauer Ringli". . ..and in the notes: - Claim: Original recipe from the Willisau town hall bakery - Additions: Attention: no reference to manufacturer, Midor is not mentioned, only sales address Migros. We already debated this issue seven years ago. Will be correct, otherwise...

A little self-declaration: my grandmother was Martha Amrein. If you are familiar with the subject, you will certainly know who she was. I have no personal financial connection with the subject, but it is very important to me that Willisauer Ringli are made in Willisau and that the declaration is correct.
Hello corncrake, thank you for your inquiry. The Willisauer Ringli are produced in Willisau and packaged at Minor. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

... then the manufacturer's name Midor AG would be wrong in my opinion (although perhaps legally permitted). I would also like an answer to the term "original recipe".
An old problem, it often just says "Made by ... ...", but they are often only packaged, for example, tomatoes come from China, canned in Italy and then only say "Made in Italy". If Midor does its own packaging, is it possible that the rings come from a Willisau village bakery? "Hug should be able to fill the Ringli into Migros packaging straight away, wouldn't that be easier? Questions upon questions...
Guest
... I absolutely agree with your contribution Scirocco. I suspect that at most one of the Willisau village bakers would have the capacity. If one of the village bakers were the producer, I would be delighted in any case. If it was Hug, too, I'll be able to find out.
I've never bought Willisauer Ringli before, what's so special about them? Aren't they mega-dry, a rock-hard product? That's how I perceive them.
@Scirocco Here you can find out all about the Steinharten Ringli: https://www.patrimoineculinaire.ch/Produkt/Willisauer-Ringli/267 When my father nibbled them in the 60s, you had to turn up the TV 📺. They were never my biscuits.

Good question ;-) Of course I'm a little biased. I didn't like Ringli as a child either. Now I like to eat a few when I'm in Willisau. They should be rock hard, otherwise they are not fresh (but have become rubbery due to the humidity). On the other hand, I don't perceive the original as dry as dust. You break them and then suck them. The original tastes a little citrusy (in my grandmother's day, a truckload of lemons had to be peeled, nowadays they probably use store-bought candied lemon peel). Of course, there are different opinions as to which producer makes the best Ringli. Personally, I only like the Ringli made according to the original recipe. The other products taste too industrial for my taste. But as I said, I am certainly biased and not objective. For me, the Ringli are a memory of my grandparents. My grandmother would have loved your question, by the way. She liked to talk shop very often about how a product (not just her own) should be, or how it should be better prepared.
Guest
Two small, naïve questions for both of you Scirocco and Frederica: Which pastries do you like? How did you come across my question if you don't actually like this product?
I also found Mil's answer funny "In Basel, that's why they're called that", that's why I stayed on this product page, I've never tried Willisauer Ringli because I actually love cookies with a lot of fat and chocolate, Ringli only 0.5gr fat per 100gr!!! but apparently you have to break the Ringli and let them melt in your mouth like chocolate, I'll give them a try.
Hello everyone, there is no "Midor" as the sender on the packaging, as we only fill the products. It is the original "Rathausbäckerei Willisau" recipe. This is also stated on the packaging. Best regards, your M-Infoline team
...so: the Migros Willisauer Ringli are also produced by the Hug company in Willisau according to a recipe from the Rathausbäckerei. Until its closure, the bakery still produced them itself for Migros (the Hug company also produces other Ringli - according to other recipes - but not for Migros) 🙋🏻♂️

Does this product also contain butter flavoring among the "natural flavors"?https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diacetyl
