Fun fact that I never realized until a British friend of mine, who was on a vacation tour through Germany, brought to my attention. He was overwhelmed by the amount of different sausages here in Germany. When I looked up for it I found out that there where about 1500 different sorts of sausages which I never thought of. So if you want to try them all you should think about making Germany your forever home. 😁😂
Nürnberger mit Sauerkraut is soooooo lecker😋😋😋 I’m not so much into Sauerkraut usually but with Nürnbergers… such a Perfect combination. Nürnberg is really nice as a city and they really reconstructed the heavily destroyed city very thoroughly after WWII. They managed to capture the flavor of an old historic site.
As a local based in Nürnberg/Nuremberg I am very happy that you visited "my" beautiful city. Also, I am very proud that you liked the "Nürnberger Bratwurst", it surely is the best kind of sausage you could possibly eat. Let me tell you a quick story about the origin of its relatively small size: A tale states that it has something to do with Nurembergs underground prisons from medieval times. They say you couldn't fit the big ones, nowadays called "Frankfurters", through the small celldoors' keyholes. So that's why family members of incarcerated men and women begged the butchers to make them smaller so they fit through a keyhole. That way they temporarily saved their loved ones from dying due to hunger. Anyway, I thank you for your interest in reading this and may y'all stay safe and healthy. Cheers from Nürnberg/ Germany :)
Like others already wrote: I also highly recommand the Thüringer Bratwurst. Nürnberg/Nuremberg is also famous for Lebkuchen which are also very delicious, especially Elisen-Lebkuchen. Willa has the eyes of her daddy.
having grown up in bratwurst country myself (schweinfurt) i agree. I prefer the Thueringer to go in a bun, and the nuernberger to go on a plate with sauerkraut.
@@uliwehner totally agree a butcher in the neighborhood always roasts a veal sausage on Saturdays - to kneel down - the queue at the stand is endless, even before C19
Vergesst hier mal nicht die Coburger Bratwurst die ja der Thüringer Bratwurst vor 1945 am nächsten kommen. Thüringer nach 1945 sind ja nur ein Abklatsch geboren aus Magelwirtschaft . Ihren Ruf haben sie sich vor 45 verdient.
You also have to try handmade Thüringer Bratwurst. They also have a long Bratwurst tradition and usually they turn the sausages by hand with a bowl of cold water aside so they don't burn their fingers.
@@OurStorytoTell but make sure it is a real Thüringer Bratwurst, because there so many fakes outside around germany. The best you would get of course somewhere in Thüringen!
in German mustard there is normally no horseradish! Just pure mustard seed. in Austria and east Germany there are some brands that use horseradish as additional ingredients.
I guess you can buy Nürnberger Rostbratwürste in almost every supermarket in Germany. In fact, they are very tasty. I also recommend Krakauer sausages (sausage from Krakow) that are common in Germany, which in Poland are called simply kiełbasa (the polish word for sausage).
Echte Nürnberger gibts nur in Nürnberg bei den Bratern und Metzgern . Echte Nürnberger werden Roh verarbeitet. Das was man in den Supermärkten kaufen kann ist vorgebrüht .. und deshalb nur eine Notlösung. Bei Thüringern ist die Situation ähnlich.
Actually there's a struggle between Nürnberg and Regensburg who had this type of sausage first. You'll find a really beautiful / pitoresque and historic "Wurstküche" right next to a bridge over the river Danube in Regensburg. Happy 3. Advent to y'all ;-)
I cant handle the "Bratwurst" without ABS (a bissala Senf /a little bit of mustard). Where possible choosing a mustard that you actually like is helpful. It/they also HAVE to be grilled over wood or charcoal. If "only" fried in a pan than they only taste half as good, so you choose the perfect locations to try the Bratwurst 👍.
The Nürnberg Bratwurst as street food is typically pre-brewed (so they can react on changing demand quickly) while in restaurants they are roasted from scratch (which is imho much better). Also supermarket Bratwurst is pre-brewed (besides you get fresh ones like in Nürnberg supermarkets). The traditional add on for them is horseradish. My father (born 1935 in Nürnberg ) told me, mustard is only for tourists. But I think this has changed.
Nürnberg is quiet nice. There is a lot of different things to try and to tast, for example the " nürenburger Oblaten" or the unde ground of Nürnberg ( Historische Felsengänge). The "Jugendherberge" is quiet nice for sleeping and as a starting point for exploring the city.
I also love the Nürnberger Rostbratwürstchen, as a complete dish with Sauerkraut and mashed potatoes or in the bun with mustard. And apparently Willa loves them as well.
"Sausage!" maaaan i melted inside when Willa said it...i love u guys so much and seeing my homecountry from your eyes perspective made me once more realize, how lucky i am to be born here and how beautiful germany can be...best wishes to your lil fam, god bless you!
Those small Bratwürste have become very popular in German hotels, because they resemble the small British sausages that are part of the traditional "cooked breakfast". So you find them now at the breakfast buffet next to the scambled eggs and fried bacon. When they are labelled "Nuremberg style" (Nürnberger Art) every butcher or meat producer can sell them.
Oddly enough here in the UK little skinny sausages like that are called chipolatas. The best UK sausages are Cumberland and Lancashire. The regular breakfast sausages here are pretty rank.
When in Nürnberg, I can recommend the Fränkische Bratwurst. Similar spices, rougher consistency which brings the different flavors out better, regular Bratwurst size. Perfect street food.
Hi, you lovely little family ! What a nice vlog video from you. Nürnberger Rostbratwurst is a "classic" that everyone who visits Nürnberg should try out. For the mustard, I can recommend some very good ones. Try Düsseldorfer Löwensenf (Dusseldorf Lion Mustard). If you prefer a milder mustard, Thomy Nestle mustars (in the blue tube) is the best choice in Germany, I would say. There is also a French mustard (in different flavours), called Maille. The standard mustard, you can also get in German supermarkets, but for the special flavoured ones, you should rather go to France and buy them there. Also Fallot is an excellent brand when it comes to original Dijon mustard from France. I have been to Dijon and tried several mustards there, and they are ALL delicious. Best wishes : Gerry
@@OurStorytoTell How do you mean? Which brand? I suspect that they are all made by the same company but just branded for the suppliers. There is a chain, Tesco that do a cool product at a reasonable price. If you mean type then I prefer the standard bratty with senf but also currywurst.
Thüringer Rostbratwurst also is awesome you should give it a try i usually dont like saudages but Thüringer and Nürnberger are my favorits and the only kind i eat for your home i recomment trying Bautzener Senf Mittelsharf as a chid i was not so keen on eating spicy mustard but i liked this one i dont like horseraddish either so give it a try as well
@@OurStorytoTell My tip: visit Eisenach. The birthplace of Johann Sebastian Bach. A place that was also of great importance for Martin Luther. During the times of the German Democratic Republic, there was a large car factory here. In any case, you definitely have to walk from the village to the Wartburg. (UNESCO World Heritage and pure German faces) And eat a Thuringian bratwurst on the way in the forest at the donkey station on the food truck. The Dragon Gorge is also great in Eisenach!
Did you know that the first German railway was build between Nürnberg an Fürth. There is a railway museum in Nürnberg with a replica of the first train.
Some other meals with sausages you should try (seasonal; winter time): "Grünkohl mit Pinkelwurst" (Oldenburg area, Lower Saxony). "Wirsing mit Mettwurst" aka Mettenden (typically in the area called Münsterland in Northrhine-Westfalia). These two meals with sausage and cabbage is normally also served with potatos... hey, there must he a reason why we were called Krauts 🤔😅
The next time you are out in Franconia, try "Blaue Zipfel". Typical traditional Franconian bratwurst in a sauce made from onions, spices and vinegar. You will love it!
Generally you get a pair of sausages when you order a meal like that. With three of the small ones being the equivalent of a regular sized one, the six you had was again the same as a pair
Another great video. Glad you like the Nürnberg bratwurst! It really IS the best one! Just ask Willa! I was born and raised in Nürnberg. When I was a kid I remember being scared of walking along some left over ruins from the war. The burned out buildings with no windows looked haunting. It's such a great city now and I'm so happy to see it thriving! I live in Florida now but frequently travel back to Nürnberg. Have a merry Christmas!
Hehe, that Willa wouldn't even take a bite out of the bun / Brötchen is completely understandable to me. Why bother with the side if you can have only the main course? That would have been me as a kid myself at her age, chomping down the sausages. The Nürnberger Bratwürste (they are always delivered in multiples, as they are so small) are one of THE best known types of sausage in Germany. I am truely, desperately sorry to the British with what I am saying now, but their breakfast sausages that seem to be at least visual carbon copies of the Nürnberger, is like comparing card board pictures to the real deal. Once I had the absolute pleasure of getting my hands on some real, hand-made Thüringer Bratwurst from a specialized butcher in Thüringen / Thuringia. Made to perfection, an incredible delight. Similar to many other styles of Bratwurst, but ooooh so subtly different in flavor. Comparing the Thüringer with the Nürnberger would be like comparing two cars from different brands for their aesthetically pleasing aspects. Both might hold beauty in the eyes of a single viewer, yet similar but different enough, yet both are still basically a four-wheeled vehicle.
I hope you also did some sightseeing in one of the most beautiful cities of germany. The city center, the Kaiserburg and the National Museum are great places to visit, also the "Straße der Menschenrechte"
The restaurant's sausages look very much "handmade" (uneven shape etc) while the "outside" ones look like mass-produced. Those you can buy in packs of like 12-20 pieces in every supermarket (not all are good, though)
Merry Christmas to me! I just accidentally stumbled upon this video while being a bit bored this Christmas Day. What an amazing surprise. You guys are living the life my wife and I often dreamed about for over 40 years - living in Germany. Admittedly I've been quite devoted to some of your other fellow TH-cam travel vloggers, but you became my favorites already. Who would've thought watching two kids young enough to be my grandkids would be so entertaining? Normally I'd have no interest in two Millennials' vlog with their kid tagging along, but Willa is the star of the show. Such a precocious little girl. I'll be spending the rest of my day and the next watching you guys do what I've always longed to do but just never had the resources or guts to pull off. BTW, you settled smack dab in the area we have been visiting almost every year since 1979.
Thank you so much for your kind message!❤️ We hope you enjoy our other videos as well! It’s been such a fun time in Germany so far! Where are you watching from?
@@OurStorytoTell We're in the Pocono "Mountains" in Pennsylvania. Hopefully for not too much longer because we are dieing to get out and resume seeing the World. 58 countries down and 42 more to go.
You got your first Nürnberger Rostbratwurst, with Sauerkraut and then you go for them again in the cheap streetfood version… I know the Restaurant where you eat first, I think they did the best you can get in and around Nürnberg! Yes, it’s the same ingredient and the same meat inside, but you forget the Craftsmanship and love for the products that make the difference! Handmade with love taste better than a machine can ever made! Next you need to try a Weihnachtsgans mit Rotkohl und Knödeln! Love how Willa love only the sausage 😂😂
Concerning why they are this small you come along their history. There used to be a closing hour and the pub owner could pass the little Rostbratwurst through the keyhole (they were bigger back than) Anyhow, they are quite tasty until today
I always got a at bratwurst at the little stall at the halfway point when we went volksmarching. It would be cold outside and after hiking up hills it really hit the spot..
Whenever I am in Germany, I’ll get bratwurst in restaurants or out on the street. Is so good wherever I get it, just love that sausage! Loved that restaurant too, will definitely go there!
I know it's about travelling and experiencing new places and stuff, but you know you can get Nürnberger in almost every Supermarket in Germany. Same goes for Münchner Weisswurst. Granted: Fresh from the place of origin is always the better option. Happy you like the food here. :-)
If it is not declared specifically as a "horseradish-mustard", which personally I have never heard of, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist, then what you had is called "scharfer Senf" (spicy mustard), there is NO horseradish in there. You are used to the American style mustard, that is almost sweet, but for a German has really no mustard flavor. I've lived in the US for some years and it was very hard finding a mustard that was similar to the german one. The only one I could find as an imported french dijon mustard. In Germany you can find all kinds of mustards, which are "good" for different things. Leberkäse for example is classic with a sweet mustard, Bratwurst classically is eaten with a spicy mustard and then you can fin everything in between. Personally I prefer the very spicy Löwensenf, as grew up in the region where it is produced.
@@Andreas_Cologne Interesting. Thank you! Never seen it, do you know a brand ? I love both mustard and horseradish. But I doubt it is something they would have at a regular "Würstlbude". I still think it was "scharfer Senf".
I was there in early December at the same restaurant. Ate outside. Yum! I brought the Elise Lebkuchen home to enjoy and it's delicious! Enjoy your journey.🇨🇦🎅👋👋
Nürnberger are indeed very nice but in my opinion there are 3 other sausages which are even better. In no particular order they are: Thüringer (must be in Thüringen and even there you need to look out for the official stamp of approval), Merguez, a spicy lamb sausage from Northern Africa, and Boerewors a beef sausage from South Africa.
Oh my gosh! I am sitting here and salivating, I can smell the sausages from here. So I just went to the Bavaria Sausage website and ordered some, but it will take at least 4 days to arrive here hope I last that long.
But if you were in Nürnberg why didn´t you try some original Nürnberger Lebkuchen especially now at Christmas time. An other speciality from nurenberg. Ofc you can get it everywhere else in Ger ;)
What makes German sausages so good is that they are made of spices and, in the main, MEAT. Most, if not all, the flavour enhancers or padding you find in U.S. sausages are illegal in Germany.
@@Andreas_Cologne Considering that in some countries celiacs are unable to eat sausages because whatever they stuff into them contains gluten, yeah, that the German sausage is ONLY made out of meat and spices is something special. (At least outside of Europe).
Hot dogs and Bratwurst on a bun are much different. lol Bratwurst in einem Brotchen is a German classic and staple. But, you have to put mustard and or Sauerkraut on it. Beautiful!!
Ok, nice to Watch that you like the Nürnberger Bratwurst. We are staying in Punta Gorda, Florida on Vaccation and want to try „Chick-Fil-A“ because ist your favourite and you miss it the most. Which Menu Item Do You Recommend?
Ahh so fun you’re on vacation! We enjoy the breakfast chicken biscuit sandwich (with honey added onto it) & for lunch, the spicy chicken sandwich with extra pickles (we eat it in a lettuce wrap actually not with the bun). We add chick fil a sauce to the spicy sandwich! Enjoy and let us know what you think! We are curious now 😂
@@OurStorytoTell Chick-Fil-A was awesome! That was our favourite Fast Food so far! We tried the spicy sandwich with extra pickles and the chick fil a sauce in a bun, Filet Nuggets and the Coob Salat with Avocado Dressing. We also tried the Homemade Lemonade! Best Ever!
Seems you had a nice and tasty day also with some research ahead otherwise you wouldnt have found that nice looking restaurant with original Nürnberger Bratwürste. Have them from time to time as well and those from Aldi and Lidl dont taste that bad. Mainly just with a bun and sometimes with Sauerkraut and smashed potatoes. You know Sauerkraut is the seasonable vegetable right know with high content of vitamine C. Marines in the middle age took it to prevent skorbut. Guess in summer or with your first barbie we will se a contest of Nürnberger Bratwürste with Rostbratwurst, Rindsbratwurst and Thüringer Bratwurst(you definitely should try once) together with different kind of mostards, medium or hot and from different producers/brands like Löwensenf, Bautzener Senf(favourite in the former eastern parts of Germany). Oh may ou do when your first fleet of american tourists(relatives) arrive at your place. I am sure they all watch your videos as well and they already have in mind what to see, what to do, what to taste. A nice week to all of you.
It's so fascinating and lovely to see people experiencing German culture and Germany in such an amazing way. Most people think of Germany as this nazi empire and it's so nice to see people experiencing the exact different thing. Just so perfect. I hope you two stay in Germany 👌👌🇩🇪
There is no horse reddish in the mustard. Its only real mustard made from the brown mustard seeds. And that is spicy. I know US mustard, so i understand why you think it must be something in there....
When you are in franconia again, you should try another way of preparing bratwurst, not be found elsewhere. Blaue Zipfel (or Saure Zipfel). It is extremely good, but you should like onions... ;) And not be afraid of vinegar... Give it a try and decide for yourself.
Fun fact that I never realized until a British friend of mine, who was on a vacation tour through Germany, brought to my attention. He was overwhelmed by the amount of different sausages here in Germany. When I looked up for it I found out that there where about 1500 different sorts of sausages which I never thought of. So if you want to try them all you should think about making Germany your forever home. 😁😂
It's not just a German thing. Poland has a huge variety of sausages too. Spain and Italy too, though many people aren't aware of that.
@@S_Black Every European country has a great variety of sausages.
Nürnberger mit Sauerkraut is soooooo lecker😋😋😋 I’m not so much into Sauerkraut usually but with Nürnbergers… such a Perfect combination.

They say you couldn't fit the big ones, nowadays called "Frankfurters", through the small celldoors' keyholes. So that's why family members of incarcerated men and women begged the butchers to make them smaller so they fit through a keyhole.

But is the Thüringer Original Rostbrat your profile picture?
I have some in my freezer right this minute here in Sweden. I buy them at Lidl! LOVE them!!! Yum! Now I’m hungry.
Aldi has them here in the US. excellent substitute for the american breakfast sausage.
I have none here at home in Germany. But i'll try to get some tonight at the "Weihnachtsmarkt."

Usually the Bratwurst carts have an common mustard called „Mittelscharf“ or Ketschup to coos from. Mustard with horseradish would be a specialty

In emergencies, you can eat the sausage without the bun. :)
Bin 60 und kenne den Spruch noch von meinem Opa
make it rhyme: in an emergency, you can eat the brat without the bread.

you can buy Nürnberger Bratwurst also in any grocery store in Germany and they a good.
It's been 30 years since I've had them, and I still crave Nürnberger Bratwurst on Brotchen.
Try the Bavarian mustard sweet and spicy like Lowensenf or Handlmaier. No Horseradish at all, just coarse mustard seeds and spices.
You have to try the Bratwurst in Regensburg at the "Bratwurst Kogel". There they sell Bratwurst at the oldest place in Germany were you can Buy them

you should give it a try

Both might hold beauty in the eyes of a single viewer, yet similar but different enough, yet both are still basically a four-wheeled vehicle.
Oh, you should have gotten some authentic Nuernberger Lebkuchen! They're amazing!
The Onions which Mustard is a typical garnisch in a bun, also called Bosna in this combination.
Street brat are the best. You have to have the sinus clearing mustard and the crusty roll. Of all things I miss in Europe these brat are number 1.
I bet so! Where do you live now?
You guys are doing great and I appreciate your hard work. Enjoy your stay in Germany every day!
Great food video. I have enjoyed watching from beginning to end. Thank you for sharing your trip to Nurnberg.
Thank you for watching! They are our favorites to make!
I hope you also did some sightseeing in one of the most beautiful cities of germany. The city center, the Kaiserburg and the National Museum are great places to visit, also the "Straße der Menschenrechte"
We definitely need to do more exploring there, but what we did see what beautiful! 😍
Great video in difficult times!
Thanks Erik!
The restaurant's sausages look very much "handmade" (uneven shape etc) while the "outside" ones look like mass-produced. Those you can buy in packs of like 12-20 pieces in every supermarket (not all are good, though)
That’s a good observation that we will definitely implement next time! 😊
You really know how to make me feel hungry! So jealous, but glad you enjoyed and hopefully many more types of sausage!
Yout first German Bratwurst - what a historic moment! 👍🏻😂
Willa seemed a little quieter than usual. I hope she was just tired and not sick?!?
Seriously! 😂 She is not sick thankfully 😊
nürnberger work also perfectly with sweet mustard
Merry Christmas to me! I just accidentally stumbled upon this video
while being a bit bored this Christmas Day. What an amazing surprise.
You guys are living the life my wife and I often dreamed about for over 40
years - living in Germany. Admittedly I've been quite devoted to some
of your other fellow TH-cam travel vloggers, but you became my favorites
already. Who would've thought watching two kids young enough to be my
grandkids would be so entertaining? Normally I'd have no interest in
two Millennials' vlog with their kid tagging along, but Willa is the star of the show. Such a precocious little girl. I'll be spending the rest of my day and the next watching you guys do what I've always longed to do but just never had the resources or guts to pull off. BTW, you settled smack dab in the area we have been visiting almost every year since 1979.
Thank you so much for your kind message!❤️ We hope you enjoy our other videos as well! It’s been such a fun time in Germany so far! Where are you watching from?
@@OurStorytoTell We're in the Pocono "Mountains" in Pennsylvania. Hopefully for not too much longer because we are dieing to get out and resume seeing the World. 58 countries down and 42 more to go.
You got your first Nürnberger Rostbratwurst, with Sauerkraut and then you go for them again in the cheap streetfood version… I know the Restaurant where you eat first, I think they did the best you can get in and around Nürnberg! Yes, it’s the same ingredient and the same meat inside, but you forget the Craftsmanship and love for the products that make the difference! Handmade with love taste better than a machine can ever made! Next you need to try a Weihnachtsgans mit Rotkohl und Knödeln! Love how Willa love only the sausage 😂😂
The method of grilling (gas, wood, type of wood) has an impact on the taste too
Lol! I had dessert in my week‘s offering- I ate ALL the Christmas Cookies- Plätzchen! My own fault for not buying enough…
I hope you tried the Lebkuchen of Nuremberg as well 😊
We didn’t! 😕 Next time!
Concerning why they are this small you come along their history. There used to be a closing hour and the pub owner could pass the little Rostbratwurst through the keyhole (they were bigger back than) Anyhow, they are quite tasty until today
I always got a at bratwurst at the little stall at the halfway point when we went volksmarching. It would be cold outside and after hiking up hills it really hit the spot..
Whenever I am in Germany, I’ll get bratwurst in restaurants or out on the street. Is so good wherever I get it, just love that sausage! Loved that restaurant too, will definitely go there!
Yes you really should! Such a cool interior & exterior! 😊
First thing I do whenever I'm back in Germany is have a good Döner Kebab followed by a Lahmaçun and then a sausage. ;)
was ein tolles Restaurant!
When you are in Franconia you should also try smoked Bratwurst. But that's eaten cold, for dinner (+ horseradish and pickles).
Thanks for the tip! 👍
In holl Frankonia,Franken, you can get in each Town or Villages an ather Size and Tast of Bratwurst and all of them are tasty.
I know it's about travelling and experiencing new places and stuff, but you know you can get Nürnberger in almost every Supermarket in Germany. Same goes for Münchner Weisswurst.
Granted: Fresh from the place of origin is always the better option.
Happy you like the food here. :-)
If it is not declared specifically as a "horseradish-mustard", which personally I have never heard of, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist, then what you had is called "scharfer Senf" (spicy mustard), there is NO horseradish in there. You are used to the American style mustard, that is almost sweet, but for a German has really no mustard flavor. I've lived in the US for some years and it was very hard finding a mustard that was similar to the german one. The only one I could find as an imported french dijon mustard. In Germany you can find all kinds of mustards, which are "good" for different things. Leberkäse for example is classic with a sweet mustard, Bratwurst classically is eaten with a spicy mustard and then you can fin everything in between. Personally I prefer the very spicy Löwensenf, as grew up in the region where it is produced.
(German) horseradish mustard sure exists.
I love Löwensenf, too. The original red one has no sugar added. That's unfortunatly very seldom.
@@Andreas_Cologne Interesting. Thank you! Never seen it, do you know a brand ? I love both mustard and horseradish. But I doubt it is something they would have at a regular "Würstlbude". I still think it was "scharfer Senf".
Finally nuremberg! My hometown ♥️
It took us too long to get there, but don’t worry, we will be back! ❤️
Aaaaha, Nürnberger Schlüssellochbratwürte. They a so small that they can go through a keyhole! You always need etc least 3 of them.
I was there in early December at the same restaurant. Ate outside. Yum! I brought the Elise Lebkuchen home to enjoy and it's delicious! Enjoy your journey.🇨🇦🎅👋👋
Mmm! Sounds tasty! So fun to hear a little about your experience. 😊
Nürnberger are indeed very nice but in my opinion there are 3 other sausages which are even better. In no particular order they are: Thüringer (must be in Thüringen and even there you need to look out for the official stamp of approval), Merguez, a spicy lamb sausage from Northern Africa, and Boerewors a beef sausage from South Africa.
welcome to Germany
Thank you!
Nürnberg Bratwurst to die for.. had these in Germany as a kid.. so delicious!
Mmmm! Love that you have that memory!
Just realised, you had a haircut , looks great, also I love the Bratwurst 👍🏻
Thank you & we can see why you do!
They cook nicely in an air fryer.
Hey never thought about that!! Thanks for sharing!
Oh my gosh! I am sitting here and salivating, I can smell the sausages from here. So I just went to the Bavaria Sausage website and ordered some, but it will
take at least 4 days to arrive here hope I last that long.
The anticipation for when they will arrive will make them taste that better 😊😋
But if you were in Nürnberg why didn´t you try some original Nürnberger Lebkuchen especially now at Christmas time. An other speciality from nurenberg. Ofc you can get it everywhere else in Ger ;)
We didn’t know it was originated there until after. Next time ☺️
Now THAT's a restaurant interior, isn't it?!
It was seriously amazing! 😍
Good advice: Don't watch hungry! 😂Schönen 3. Advent. 🕯🙂
Makes Nathan even more excited to try German sausage!!
Seriously there are so many types! We just tried some more this weekend too and the flavors vary a lot. It'll be a blast when you guys come!
What makes German sausages so good is that they are made of spices and, in the main, MEAT. Most, if not all, the flavour enhancers or padding you find in U.S. sausages are illegal in Germany.
Made of meat.
Nein!
Doch!
Oh!
😂
@@Andreas_Cologne Considering that in some countries celiacs are unable to eat sausages because whatever they stuff into them contains gluten, yeah, that the German sausage is ONLY made out of meat and spices is something special. (At least outside of Europe).
Hot dogs and Bratwurst on a bun are much different. lol Bratwurst in einem Brotchen is a German classic and staple. But, you have to put mustard and or Sauerkraut on it. Beautiful!!
Ok, nice to Watch that you like the Nürnberger Bratwurst. We are staying in Punta Gorda, Florida on Vaccation and want to try „Chick-Fil-A“ because ist your favourite and you miss it the most. Which Menu Item Do You Recommend?
Ahh so fun you’re on vacation! We enjoy the breakfast chicken biscuit sandwich (with honey added onto it) & for lunch, the spicy chicken sandwich with extra pickles (we eat it in a lettuce wrap actually not with the bun). We add chick fil a sauce to the spicy sandwich! Enjoy and let us know what you think! We are curious now 😂
@@OurStorytoTell Chick-Fil-A was awesome! That was our favourite Fast Food so far! We tried the spicy sandwich with extra pickles and the chick fil a sauce in a bun, Filet Nuggets and the Coob Salat with Avocado Dressing. We also tried the Homemade Lemonade! Best Ever!
While you are still in Franconia, try a "Schäuferla" (shovel) - tastes like a mix of pulled pork and roasted pork 👍
Thanks for the suggestion! 👍
Has anyone warned you about the addictive nature of that food?
Too late now anyway.
Hahaha.
Definitely too late 😋
Great vid 👍🏻
Seems you had a nice and tasty day also with some research ahead otherwise you wouldnt have found that nice looking restaurant with original Nürnberger Bratwürste. Have them from time to time as well and those from Aldi and Lidl dont taste that bad. Mainly just with a bun and sometimes with Sauerkraut and smashed potatoes. You know Sauerkraut is the seasonable vegetable right know with high content of vitamine C. Marines in the middle age took it to prevent skorbut. Guess in summer or with your first barbie we will se a contest of Nürnberger Bratwürste with Rostbratwurst, Rindsbratwurst and Thüringer Bratwurst(you definitely should try once) together with different kind of mostards, medium or hot and from different producers/brands like Löwensenf, Bautzener Senf(favourite in the former eastern parts of Germany). Oh may ou do when your first fleet of american tourists(relatives) arrive at your place. I am sure they all watch your videos as well and they already have in mind what to see, what to do, what to taste. A nice week to all of you.
Thank god i have planned to make Bratwurst today. Orherwise i would die .
Happy Holidays. 😂
Haha 😂 Love it!! Enjoy and happy holidays to you as well!
@@OurStorytoTell . Thanks. Was amazing.
It's so fascinating and lovely to see people experiencing German culture and Germany in such an amazing way.
Most people think of Germany as this nazi empire and it's so nice to see people experiencing the exact different thing.
Just so perfect.
I hope you two stay in Germany 👌👌🇩🇪
Thank you!! ❤️❤️
There is no horse reddish in the mustard. Its only real mustard made from the brown mustard seeds. And that is spicy. I know US mustard, so i understand why you think it must be something in there....
Usally it comes without horse reddish, but there are some brands with this variety.
Yum... bratwurst are the best. Especially from the stands or at a fest. Eat some more for us please. 😂
Somebody got a haircut. I like it ✌
When you are in franconia again, you should try another way of preparing bratwurst, not be found elsewhere. Blaue Zipfel (or Saure Zipfel). It is extremely good, but you should like onions... ;) And not be afraid of vinegar... Give it a try and decide for yourself.
We like onions so we will have to try! Thanks for the recommendation.
And now , what can I do now ?
I am more than hungry 🤤
