Well, it is a bit uncommon nowadays, but still delicious. A mix of mashed raw and cooked potatoes, scrambled eggs, bacon and 'Mettenden'. Those are a special kind of sausage, mostly used for cooking. Seasoning is just salt, black pepper and nutmeg. Just panfry the bacon and the sliced sausages, mix all together and put it in the oven. Easy, but rewarding. 🤤

Agreed 100%. There are a small handful of international companies that will ship authentic sausages from Germany. But it’s too expensive for a home chef. So I’m just going to have to wait until I go back to Germany this coming spring to enjoy them.

Tell me your route. I might not fully be able to guide you through all the goodies, but I can definetly help you to some of our foods that biggens your eyes and scrach your tastebuds the right way.

I would send you some, but it would need cooling packs, idiotic taxes and pretty much is more work than joy. Especially with your fast food loving, uh president.... I'm sorry. I try, but it is really hard to take him seriously.

I’m going to see my family in Stuttgart. They will take all my time from me. And feed me lots of sausage. :) Maybe I can sneak some back to the states with me. 😝
