The Königsberger Klöpse you had are veal dumplings, cooked in a broth with vinegar and lemon and herbs and spices. The broth later on becomes the sauce when its thinkend with a roux.
Currywurst can differ a lot from region to region. In Berlin you usually get the curry ketchup deal which you tried in this video. In the west it's a curry sauce. Can't really speak on other areas since I personaly haven't tried them anywhere else. So your memorie is probably right you just eaten it somewhere else before.
Oh thank goodness we aren't going crazy and there is an actual curry sauce! 😅 Glad you told us as we're heading back to Germany next year so will enjoy both types. Thanks so much! ☺️
Thanks! ☺️ We will do a video on budgets and everything cost-related. In Berlin specifically though, we were spending an average of about $200AUD per day, over a 2 week period (inc accommodation)
"if you´re looking for a well researched food tour, this ain´t it" didn´t expected elsewise from a pair of aussies, it´s not called downunder for no reason you guys are just something unique and I love aussies for that. You have an even bigger "laisez faire" attitude than the most laid back french guy just the aussie slang: wtf is that? You don´t want foreigners to understand you, do you? Hardest dialect directly after welsh, if I would learn the old german dialects welsh would be managable but aussies? Impossible to get the lingustical creativity without living there, you just crack me up 😂 BTW: Currywurst was the only real german dish you had, what you didn´t know Berlin isn´t Germany anymore, it´s kind of it´s own country and culture and beside Currywust everything else was fusion kitchen, not real german food.
Hello! We see what you're saying about Berlin, its a giant global melting pot of culture and diversity- I think thats one of the many reasons we love it so much! As for our slang, its terrible isn't it! Sometimes its hard for even Aussies to understand each others slang (depending which part of the country you're from, it varies quite a lot) 🤣 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, we appreciate it!
I think you two could save money bet by buying ingredients and cooking the foods as I dare say a lot of this is costly and in some places if they don’t understand they throwing loads of different plates and it all adds up .and I didn’t know that you both gave up jobs and travelling around so I would get ingredients and make own goods if it’s costly at some places
Hello Catherine! We usually stay at airbnbs with kitchens and cook 90% of our meals there. These food vlogs are just one-off days usually once or twice a month so we really dont eat out much at all (definitely couldn't afford it and we would be very fat if we did haha 😁)
As I understand it, currywurst emerged in the aftermath of World War II when British soldiers occupying Germany would finish off a night's drinking with a bratwurst. That sausage was a bit bland to their tastes so they would spice it up by topping it off with a curry sauce. At first, the locals wondered what the mad Brits were up to but soon they adopted it as their own. That's the story I've been told. I don't know how true it is because curry only became very popular in Britain in the 1970s. Anyway, it's a possible explanation why currywurst is often served with a curry sauce.
