A bit late to the cookery party but... flea got it, "Korinthen" are currants.
As to the rest....
Mehl is flour; "genebt" is nonsense, I'm afraid, could you check the writing? 1 Ei mit wenig Wasser - one egg with a little water - verfuiels - could this be verquirlt? it means whisked - in die Mitte des Mehls geben - in the middle of the flour.
1/4 # butterflocken - "butter flakes" - butter cut into little pieces; 160 g sugar; auf den Rand der doehles geben; on the edge of something is right, but "doehles" isn't German, I'm afraid. Can you have another look?
I'm around for a wee bit, Hil, if you have anything else you want to run by me.
That's been the standard time everywhere I've worked.
It's mean!
Okay, perhaps not the maturest viewpoint, but half a year before I can use sick time? If one accepts the need for sick time, that's a long while to go without.
As it is, I've taken one unpaid day so far, and may take unpaid vacation before all is said and done, in order to avoid too much stress.
I don't like it either, and think they should make that up to you once you've completed the 6 months. So sure your paychecks are cut before the 6 months, but then that all comes back on the 6 month paycheck.
But, then I know my views on labor are probably a little different than your average company's.
But no vacation or paid sick days until 6 months in, which is twice the waiting period at either of my last gigs.
Mine has always started accumulating right away. So effectively, you've racked up a day or so by the end of the first month.

I should check this, but the HR is a maze here, and I don't quite need to know yet.
I think I accrued, but wasn't supposed to use, leave for the first 90 days. My bosses let me anyway (90 included Xmas and TG.)

Yeah that seems weird to me. I don't remember if we had a waiting period before being able to take paid time on my current job. I was there three months as a contractor before I came on as a permanent employee. I know I started accumulating time right away as a perm. employee.
I don't know if there's a waiting period at new job. When I accepted the offer I told them that I was going to take 3 days basically right away that I'd already planned and they were cool with that.
"genebt" is nonsense
genesst?
Hah, no, though that was a very good guess, Tom. It's gesiebt, meaning sieved.
Mulling it over, "doehles" makes me think of dough (usually "teig"), perhaps it means the same thing.
BTW, Hil, half a pound in Germany is 500g, so you'll probably have to convert that to US lbs for the recipes to work properly.

So perfect! My language-happy just met my cooking-happy!
