Since the BSE crisis, the 'Bregenwurst' no longer contains brain!

I'm amused to read about "Bratkartoffeln" here! In November 1992 Marion Brown and I visited "Mutter Jütte" (Mother Jütte) in Bremke, an old inn in a village near Göttingen, famous for fried potatoes! Marion wrote in the guest book: ""THANKS FOR THE BEST 'FRIED' POTATOES IN THE WORLD: BREMKE!" Marion Brown Jan 24, 1992 Mutter Jütte" I visited "Mutter Jütte" for the first time in November 1960. A 'must' for Göttingen students to hike through mud and snow in winter to eat "Bratkartoffeln" with "Grünkohl" (curly kale) and 'Bregenwurst' (German sausage made from brains). Too bad the inn was closed last year...

Wiener sausages!

No, 'Bratkartoffeln' are potatoes boiled, sliced and fried in a pan. 'Kartoffelsalat" are potatoes boiled and sliced, served warm or cold with vinegar and oil.
