    As a German, I love sausages.
    You also get a lot of smoked or dried sausages over here, like "Landjäger".
    You eat them at room temperature.
    Delicious.
    Krakauer are awesome, too. Lots of garlic and with mustard seeds.
    Great video.

    Lucky you, i served in Germany on three tours with the US Army, the Thuringer Wurst was behind the Iron Curtain...and you make it look so good!!! Russians must have valued their time in East Germany...now Germany, or Deutschland.... Thanks for some great memories. Yes I was a whole life Knackwurst and bratwurst nut!!! My mom is from old Prussia, born in Falkenwalde, not Pennsylvania... Married a nice southern Air Corps Sergeant and also learned to cook Sweet potato pie (to die for) and catfish!!! Mom became very southern for a Prussian. Her fried Chicken also... to die for!!! Peace!!!

    I hate to be "that" guy who just sits back and points things out after you make these great videos, but I just have to say this. You really need to add Rindswurst to this list. That is the spicy red beef sausage that is mainly found in the Rheinland Pfalz region. Certainly the complex taste of the Rindswurst deserves a higher ranking than the Weiner! Enjoy your videos allot!!

  • @foofourtyone
    @foofourtyone 3 года назад +1

    First of all, one can have any kind of sausage with what ever ones like. If you prefer ketchup, just go for it. It is absolutely allowed. With one exception: the Weißwurst. This one you should only eat with sweet mustard. Anything else does not taste that good. "Käsekreiner" you can get all over Germany too. You do not need traveling to Austria. And "Currywurst" is, of corse, originated in Berlin. But there are variations out there. In Saarland (the smallest state of Germany), we eat Currywurst nor only with ketchup and curry, but with gravy too. It is a special kind of gravy. Normally some Shashlik pikes get cooked in this, which gives it a special flavor. And you should eat it with either "Kartoffelsalat" (Potato Salad) or "Pommes rot weiss" (French Fries with ketchup and mayo). Other than that... Enjoy ALL German sausages, 'cause they're all good.

    Had my Thüringen Wurst in Eisenach, have to eat them in their homeland. In Darmstadt you need a smoked Mettwurst from Metzger Hamm. In Frankfurt West side you need to try a Fleisch Wurst, from the old Metzger on Hanauer Landstraße. If you like fish there is the Back Fish from the fish shop in Mainz-Kastell. Smoked beer is great, have been to Bamberg in the past there is a small factory there that makes RC Model sail planes, as I flew models many years ago and visited the factory to pick up my planes direct. Do miss my Donner’s ! Wish someone in the USA made them.

    YES! Nürnberger. I usually eat them with mashed tatters, herbal butter and fried onions. Fry the Nürnberger, then cut into pieces. Add the mash and make a little hole in the middle for the butter. Finish with the onions. Looks esthetic. But then I mix it all up and shove it in my gob. :) It is my lazy dish, when I don't want to cook much. Only takes 30 minutes and fills you for 8 hours.
    @Woltersworld: Do you know the dish "Wurst im Schlafrock"? I cook it with cottage in the puff paste, Wurst on top of it, roll the puff paste so the sausage is covered in the paste and then sprinkle some grated cheese on top.

    Hi Mark, next time you're in Germany you should definitely come to Saarland and check out our meals. I bet you would love Lyoner, Schwenker and Käsewurst. Especially in summer you'll find it almost everywhere. Despite from that Saarland is a very own, welcoming and friendly place to be in Germany.

    I just found your channel not long ago and I like your videos about Germany.
    And I know youre sometimes in Hannover. So I will make a few remarks about the Currywurst.
    You describe the Currywurst as a Bratwurst with Curry Powder and Ketchup Sauce. Yes, In many parts of Germany it is sold like that.
    But, to be honest, this "Bratcurry", as it is often named, is not the same as the real Currywurst, which is a bit longer and a bit more reddish.
    If you are in Hannover again, go to the Steintor, and I guess you already know the Bratwurst-Glöckle, a nice place for fast food until late in the evening. And just on the opposite side of the street you can see the "Wurst-Basar" opened during daytime. Both are great places for tasting the more reddish Currywurst.
    And to be honest, now, living far away from this real Currywurst, I miss it.
    A Bratwurst is still a Bratwurst, even if it comes with curry sauce.
    But a Currywurst is something special. Try it, and let yourself be surprised.
    Best regards

    You'd eat that either boiled or fried, in the latter case it can be turned into a Currywurst variant.
    (Boiled is a bit more traditional, but fried is tastier, especially if you allow the skin to develop a little crust.)

    I think it's not so much the casing, but the rule about Weißwurst dates back to times when no fridges were available. So when the butcher made Weißwurst in the morning, it couldn't be stored for a long time and although we can now put sausages into fridges, this rule somehow survived as tradition. So you usually don't get them after noon...

    I liked your video and I think you did the right choice :) although Krakauer is not polish, thats German invention! Krakauer is served in Poland as a cold cut and it has completely different shape and taste. My favorite are still the frankfurter, but those real once from Frankfurt :)

    Is there a beef version of Currywurst in Germany? I don't eat Pork 🤔

      you have to order a RINDSWURST - that is a beef sausage and they can also cut it and top it with curry and red curry sauce
