Etymology of RIEBEL

The word "riebel" has German origins and is primarily used in the dialects of the Upper Rhine region, specifically in Switzerland, Alsace (in France), and Baden-Württemberg (in Germany). The etymology of "riebel" can be traced back to the Old High German word "reiban", which means "to scrape" or "to rub". This term evolved into "rebel" in Middle High German, denoting "coarse meal" or "grits". In the regional dialects, the word further transformed into "riebel", referring to a traditional dish made from grated potatoes or cornmeal.
