Blue tips
Blue Zipfel (also Saure Zipfel or Saure Bratwurst ) are a specialty of Franconian and Upper Palatinate cuisine made from bratwurst cooked in vinegar .
For the preparation, a stock of onions , vinegar , white wine , salt , sugar and optionally sauerbraten spices ( bay leaves , peppercorns , cloves and juniper berries ) and / or soup greens is boiled. The raw bratwursts (mostly Franconian bratwurst or Nuremberg Rostbratwurst ) are cooked in this brew over low heat. The sausages have a slightly bluish tinge, which is the name given to the specialty. They are served with a little stock, the onions from the stock and bread , rolls or pretzels .
Emergence
The Blauen Zipfel was created and served for the first time as a variant of the traditional Sauren Zipfel with a different recipe in 1969 by Georg and Helga Leicht in Biebelried on the occasion of the annual meeting of the Baillage de Bavière de la Chaîne des Rôtisseurs . According to research and statements by the Archaeological Spessart Project , no mention of the Blauen Zipfel can be found before 1969.
There are original recipes for the Franconian bratwurst from 1595, but also mentions dating back to the 13th century.
There are many anecdotes about the origin of the name Zipfel because of its small size . In reality, it goes back to the fact that the population should be supplied with meat in times of famine, war or epidemic. A bratwurst regulation reduced the sausage weight from 115 to 25 grams.
