EAT A PRETZEL DAY !
Today is “eat a pretzel day !, Germans love
their Pretzels or as we say in German “Brezeln”
Did you know ? The Pretzel is to become an
intangible #UNESCO World Heritage. That is how much Germans love them. Today,
we honor this by telling you some more facts around the delicious german
pastry.
According to a medieval legend, a baker from
the Swabian Alb who had been sentenced to death was pardoned because he
invented a pastry through which the sun shines three times.
Especially traditional bakeries have a
pretzel emblem on their façade. The first one appeared in 1111 and has
indicated bakeries ever since. Meanwhile, so many people love pretzels that
there are special machines for their production. However, the classic baker’s
craft teaches a special throwing technique that takes skilled bakers only a
second to make a pretzel.
The pretzel Is best eaten with butter. At the
Oktoberfest, it is served with sausage and beer. But there are other ways : for
example , dumplings made from pretzels instead of white rolls.
On new year’s day, sweet pretzels made from
yeast dough are given away. They are supposed to bring luck and love.
Have you ever tried the delicious savory
treat ?
