I went down that rabbit hole a few months ago only to discover Herta Heuwer never revealed her recipe so it died with her.

The sausage is branded as a Volkswagen Originalteil “Volkswagen Original Part” under part number 199 398 500 A. Volkswagen also makes a ketchup, Volkswagen Originalteil 199 398 500 B, to accompany the currywurst — slightly more viscous than traditional ketchup.
Ser gut!

Also damn OP, I was already hungry now I’m salivating. This post should be tagged NSFW 🥵
I have failed.
Das ist okay. Wir leben um zu lernen.
I spent years of my life taking German classes and came away with only a basic proficiency. The least I can do is correct people’s spelling on the internet to convince myself it was worthwhile. And also struggle/pretend to understand German memes 😅
I had no idea curry ketchup is a thing. Is it sweet like American ketchup?
Its a little sweet, but I find it to be more savory than anything else. It’s fucking good too.
Well, that was all I needed to hear lol. I’ll look for some next time I go to the city for groceries. Thanks!
Add garam masala to American ketchup and you’re very very close. Currywurst is one of my favorite treats, between that and Handkäse or Döner.
Oh! I have plenty of that spice blend! Thank you very much for the tip! I will totally make my own now
It can be sweet. I’ve heard of people adding honey. To me it doesn’t need to be super sweet
Obligatory hint to the hymn on Currywurst by Herbert Grönemeyer.
https://lyricstranslate.com/en/currywurst-curried-sausage.htmlI need to find out if my local BMW dealership can get that in by part number.
I’m willing to listen…
I thought that was pasta in the thumbnail. Curry and pasta is extremely good.
