The Wurst!: The Very Best of German Food Hardcover – September 5, 2017

by Otto Wolff (Author)
4.7 out of 5 stars 108 ratings
A book celebrating all the greats of German cuisine—a food culture as rich as any other in Europe.

For too long it’s been a cuisine undervalued against those other European stalwarts—French and Italian. It is time to put German food into the spotlight! Classic German food is ridiculously delicious and super easy to prepare—from slow-cooked roasts to hearty salads, tasty snacks, enriched breads, and moreish desserts—it has it all.

Hot dogs, burgers, pretzels, rye bread, and beer are just some of the hugely popular foods that had their origins in Germany. Even if you think you have no knowledge of German food, you would be surprised how influential this cuisine has been throughout history.

    This is not a beginner's cookbook. There is no accommodations to availability of ingredients or tools. I had to order a few things off Amazon because I couldn't find them locally. A few of the dishes take days to make. But I like to cook, and, so far, everything I've made has been worth the time. I can't wait to make the sauerbraten. I haven't had a good sauerbraten since my aunt died 30 years ago. And the spatzle in browned butter...omg!

    This book brings back very happy memories of the food that I miss! I wish it was available in Kindle so that I can have a digital copy in case my copy gets worn out.

    Great recipes, it would help if the author would include the region of Germany some of the recipes are from - e.g. Bavaria and some are from the North. I would recommend it for everybody who is into German or middle-European Cookery!

    Habe dieses Buch Amis geschenkt, die in Deutschland stationiert waren und wieder zurück "müssen". Das Buch ist sehr schön gestaltet mit vielen schönen typischen deutschen Rezepten, die man aber auch realistisch nachkochen kann. Schöne Fotografien runden den Gesamteindruck ab. Empfehlenswert!
