I know, I know… The
tittle sounds wrong, but the taste of these awesome German soft pretzels is so
right.
So, the other day I
was talking about food with my newly acquired German roommates, while
reminiscing about my old times in Germany, I remembered that a good friend of
mine gave me his grandma's Brezeln recipe, and it had been a while since I last
made them, so I told them, roomies, prepare yourselves for some kick ass
Brezeln. Baking them yourself is not a common thing in Germany, or in any other
country, I mean, you can always find them cheap and good on the streets or
bakeries or even supermarkets. But when you are exiled in a tiny town in Spain,
without the access to many of the culinary treats you are used to, well, you do
what you have to do.
The day came, and we
ended up having Germans over for dinner on Sunday, and they loved them. So,
they should be good judges on the authenticity of the taste and texture of this
awesome bread. But you will be the ultimate judge. So prepare your taste buds
for my German Brezeln. Butter
or senf (German mustard) for serving, marmalade or Nutella, try all
combinations, get yourself full of delicious starch and fall into a food coma
afterwards. Thank me later.
Btw, you can save
yourself the trouble of actually making the pretty knots that make up a pretzel
and make some rolls, this go awesomely with burgers or any type of sandwich…
just saying….
