I love food (doesn't
everybody?). I also love cooking - learning techniques and applying them
to solve "problems" is pretty much the foundation of all creative
endeavors, from engineering to music to cooking, all things that I love to do.
I wanted to prepare a dinner for Oktoberfest. I sauteed some bratwurst in beer, and made a sauteed cabbage dish called rotkohl. It's a sweet and sour cabbage sweetened with sugar, apples and caramelized onions, made sour with vinegar, and then enhanced with a huge douse of cabernet. I served this with a side of traditional German potato salad, which is made without mayo.
I had just assumed that Oktoberfest ran through the month of October, but in fact it typically starts in the middle of September and concludes during the first weekend in October!
