75 years of celebration of Berlin’s signature dish currywurst. It is a fried sausage cut into pieces, poured with tomato sauce with curry. The dish gained popularity in the hungry post-war years, but even now it has not lost it. There is a queue at Berlin’s Curry 36 café every day.
Café Curry 36 has been operating in the Kreuzberg district since 1981.It is believed that the sauce was invented by Herta Heuver, who ran a modest eatery in Berlin. Once she mixed spices, sprinkled them on bratwurst, and poured ketchup on top. Buyers appreciated the invention.
The woman patented the recipe for currywurst, and it was recognized as a dish of Berlin cuisine. By the way, some dispute this version of the origin of the dish and offer their own.
Now currywurst sellers make a sauce according to their own recipe, adding different ingredients to ketchup.
