It’s summer today in Berlin with 28 C, time for a Biergarten dish. Schweizer Wurstsalat is a classic dish in south Germany, mostly served outside. And of course also a classic summer dish at casa zwick. Most of you know this dish already, but a classic never get old.
Pre-cooked&lightly smoked sausage is used, like Regensburger, Krakauer or Lyoner. Use a high-quality Mortadella instead. Most importantly before you serve, put it in the fridge for 2-3h, it’s really essential.
Optional you could also add some radish or even 1-2 tsp mustard if you like.
