It has come to my attention that it is now September 5th and I don't believe we have had bratwurst yet this summer. Not one single solitary time. Not at home and not at a cookout. This shameful omission is being corrected tonight.
If you are like me, when you have bratwurst you want a cold raw vegetable salad to go along with it.
Preferably one with lots of peppers and onions.
A little cilantro is also nice. Especially since I am continuing to harvest from my modern sprout herb kit cilantro plant.
A light and tasty vinaigrette dressing rounds it all out.
Oh and wait. Some black beans too. I read the other day that if you eat beans once a week it delays the onset of dementia. I am all about that.
This is the recipe I used. It's pretty and it tastes great and it keeps your mind sharp. What other reason do you need to make it?
We are serving a selection of seasonal brews with our bratwurst and pepper salad. I think I also read that wine and beer are essential in staving off dementia. I might have dreamt that part after I went to sleep though. But I don't think so.
I'm not a beer drinker, but I can go with the wine and the beans!!! Anything to stave things off. I have never had a bratwurst though, so I am far further behind you on that! xx
