Braunschweiger Swiss Bagel

What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Cheerful Choices: Braunschweiger Swiss Bagel! Either you love braunschweiger, or you don’t. Personally, I like to think of it as French patè. Then again, I’m a Francophile. Sometimes I choose to blend braunschweiger with creamy, soft Neufchâtel cheese so I can smear it over a crusty baguette. The slightly smoky flavor goes well with a glass of red wine, especially at the end of the day. The secret to enjoying braunschweiger is to find a brand that appeals to your palate. For me, I prefer a brand that comes from Germany. It seems to be made from high-quality ingredients and never disappoints.

  8. I don’t see a lot of recipes calling for braunschweiger, so this was nice surprise. There’s something about crisp onions and braunschweiger…kind of like peanut butter and jelly. They’re made for each other. Thanks for the idea!
