Dish

Saure Zipfel

Stews, Braises and Sauced Dishes

Saure Zipfel, literally sour ends and also called Blaue Zipfel or blue ends, is a typical dish of the cooking of Franconia and the Upper Palatinate. It consists of Bratwurst poached in a vinegar brew. To prepare it, onions, vinegar, white wine and spices such as bay leaves, pepper, cloves and juniper berries are cooked together, and the raw Bratwurste are then added and simmered on low heat. During this slow cooking the sausages turn a pale blue, which gives the dish its second name. They are served in the brew, with bread, bread rolls or pretzels, so that the tangy liquid can be mopped up.
