Germany, grilled sausage and sauerkraut I guess. But if you ask a native about the national food or a food that they miss when living abroad, it's usually bread, specifically sourdough made from mixed rye and wheat flour. Goes great with butter and slices of cheese or cold cuts ("Käsebrot", "Wurstbrot").
Can confirm.
Went to a dinner party at a friends house last year; there was a German who now lives in NZ. My partner makes sourdough from scratch; that German engineer just about cried when he tasted it. Said it was just like the ones at home.
Zefix!
Leberkassemmel oder Brezn!
I'm too pigprussian for that lol
Döner :)
Krustenbratensemmel
Well, now I want to see if I can find or make that bread.
Currywurst!
TBH I prefer plain ketchup with my grilled sausage...
Ja, dieses Kommentar hier, Herr Officer
If I’m honest I prefer mustard, but Currywurst is quite iconic imo
But more internally I think. Outside of Germany, it's sauerkraut.
Hmm never heard of rye and sourdough at the same time. I've seen them separately overseas in the US but never as one bread
It does sound good though, i like sourdough
I make sourdough rye (mixed wheat flour and rye flour) with my regular starter all the time! I think Whole foods usually has a sourdough rye - some years back I bought some and that was why I started making sourdough bread. It's so delicious. Any version from rustic and crusty more like what you think of as sourdough to very dense dark and bouncy, sourdough rye is great.
There's actually an English Wikipedia article on it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mischbrot
Rye-only sourdough is also a thing, gets pretty dense and bitter though. I prefer Mischbrot with more wheat than rye.
