Hi Ute, the solution is to modify 'typeset cell' : it should check if we are before the first row and clear the cell content in that case:
\pgfplotstabletypeset[ typeset cell/.append code={% \ifnum\pgfplotstablerow<0 \pgfkeyssetvalue{/pgfplots/table/@cell content}{}% \fi }, outfile={table}, header=false, columns/0/.style={string type,column type=r}, columns/1/.style={string type,column type=l}, columns/2/.style={string type,column type=l} ] { 185 g weiche~Butter 150 g Zucker 2 ~ Eier 1 P"ack. Vanillezucker 375 g Mehl 3 TL Backpulver ca.~350 ml Sprudelwasser } Here, the /.append code causes the argument to be appended to the original functionality. It overwrites the cell content for the header row (which has row index -1). I will think about how to improve the manual here: it did not mention the possibility (sorry).
