Cooking class experience — learning Bratwurst properly

I took a cooking class specifically to learn how to make Bratwurst correctly. The instructor explained why dark rye bread is used the way it is — something I'd never understood from just eating it. The smoky and satisfying result when you make it yourself is different.

German bread culture is extraordinarily diverse with over 300 officially registered varieties. We learned how a Sunday family roast lunch shapes the way this dish is eaten. The class ended with the meal and a glass of weissbier. I've made it three times since and each time it improves. Highly recommend the cooking class approach.
