Restaurant-guide

Bavarian “Obazda“ with pale Lager beer “Obazda“ is a spicy Bavarian cheese cream that is served as a snack. In Franconia, it is called “Gerupfter“ or “Angemachter.“ © Marcela

/wikipedia

Preparation: Crush the camembert with a fork and then mix in butter, cream chees and onions. Spice to your taste and mix in the beer. Sprinkle chives on top. Enjoy with German bread, Bavarian Brez’n and radish and, of course, with a fresh pale Lager.

.org

For this recipe, you need: • 250 gr ripe camembert • 1 tablespoon of butter

Beer suggestion with this dish: Pale Lager beer Generally speaking, the beer used for this recipe is also the ideal beverage to drink with this dish. Pale Lager beer is used to prepare the “Obazdn” to give this beer garden classic a smoother consistency and a mild and spicy taste. The beer drunk with it, should bring out and complement this nuttily spicy, yet mild and creamy taste of the cheese. A stronger beer would cover up the taste of the cheese and a milder beer would not be able to hold its own against the flavor of the cheese.

• 100 gr cream cheese • 1 chopped onion • salt, pepper, paprika, caraway • 4 tablespoons of pale Lager beer • chives

10 Allgäu-style cheese spaetzle with roasted onions Although spaetzle originate from Swabia, the people of the Allgäu region have refined the simple original recipe to turn spaetzle into the delicious cheese spaetzle. Originally, Swabian spaetzle were a meal eaten by poor people.

ion - fotolia

.com

Preparation:

Ingredients:

1. Prepare the spaetzle dough from flour, eggs, carbonated water and a dash of salt. Sift the flour into a wide bowl and form a well into the flour. Put the beaten eggs, carbonated water and salt inside. Use the hand mixer (dough hooks) or a wooden spoon to mix it into a smooth, thick dough. Let the dough sit for ten minutes.

• 500 grams flour

2. Bring a large pot of saltwater to the boil.

• 2 tablespoons butter

3. Heat the oven to 75 degrees centigrade (167 degrees Fahrenheit) and put in a large bowl to warm it up.

• 300 grams grated Emmentaler cheese

4. Melt butter in a pan.

• Salt and pepper

• 6 eggs • 200 ml carbonated water • 1 dash of salt • 2 onions

5. Cut the onions into thin rings and roast them in the butter until golden brown. 6. When the salt water is cooking, put about one quarter of the dough through a spaetzle squeezer or shaver into the water. 7. The spaetzle are done when they float to the top. Take them out of the water with a skimmer. 8. Put the spaetzle in the pre-heated bowl, put a quarter of the grated cheese on top of it and put it back into the oven. 9. Repeat the process with the remaining quarters of the spaetzle dough. 10. When all the dough has been used and all the cheese has been put on the spaetzle and melted, take the bowl out of the oven. 11. Distribute the roasted onions decoratively on top of the spaetzle and enjoy the food!

You can also use a pan instead of the oven. Put a little bit of butter in the pan and roast the spaetzle in it. Put the cheese on top of them and mix it with the spaetzle. The Allgäu-style Cheese spaetzle are done once the cheese has melted. Decorate them with the roasted onions and serve them.

Liver dumpling soup Preparation: 1. First, heat the milk on the stove. In the meantime, cut the rolls into mediumsized cubes and put them into a bowl. Pour the hot, not boiling milk over the cubes and cover the bowl so the old bread gets thoroughly soaked. 2. While the rolls are soaking, use a knife to scrape the liver out of the skin and remove the filaments. Spread the filling in a large bowl. Mince the bacon in a mixer and add it. 3. Chop the onion into little pieces and put it into the bowl as well. Crack the eggs and add them. Add the eggs. Press out the rolls, tear them into small pieces and put them in the bowl as well. 4. In the meantime, heat the meat broth on the stove. 5. Chop the parsley and add it to the liver together with the other herbs. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top of it and mix all ingredients to make a smooth dough. 6. The dough is very sticky. Therefore, you must wet your hands well to form the dumplings. Should the dough fall apart, add breadcrumbs. 7. Form about eight dumplings out of the liver dough and place them into the boiling meat broth. Turn down the heat because the liver dumplings should not boil. They must simmer in the meat broth for about 25 minutes.

Things you didn’t know: Brez‘n... also known as Laugenbrezel or Brezel Which guest has not eaten and loved it before, the fresh Brez‘n which has become a regular part of the Bavarian breakfast culture and a regular side dish for Weißwurst (white sausage), liver cheese and Obazda cheese. Brezel are prepared with a salted lye and come in all kinds of varieties and sizes, often sprinkled with salt. Brezel have originated from the Roman ring bread which was common in Bavarian monasteries. It was a holiday bread mostly served on New Year’s Day, Palm Sunday or at the harvest festival.

Weißwurst (white sausage) from Munich No dish is connected more closely with Bavaria than Weißwurst (white sausage). It is entwined with myths such as you have to press it out of the skin and are not allowed to eat it with fork and knife and legends such as it must be eaten before noon, and it has even become a geographical term, Weißwurst equator (the German regions below the Main river.) Bavaria’s capital Munich is directly connected to the delicacy because here, it represent the city’s proverbial hospitality. The origin of Weißwurst can also be found in Munich. The delicious sausage delicacy made from veal and pork meat, refined with onions and fresh parsley has a long tradition. According to reports, Weißwurst was created by chance in 1857 when an innkeeper filled light veal sausage meat into thick pork skin. The tradition to eat Weißwurst before noon has survived until today in many restaurants. You let the sausage simmer in hot water and eat it with sweet mustard, Brez‘n and Bavarian beer. If you want to get to know more about this Bavarian delicacy, you should go to the Weißwurst Academy in Neumarkt in the Oberpfalz. Here, you learn everything about the origin of the sausage and can help make it. In the end, you’ll get a Weißwurst diploma!
