For me proper butter makes it even better. Fresh Brötchen is important too. I work in construction and sometimes, on special occasions we get like 1,5kg Mett for the four of us and have a feast. Love it
Gods no mett has to go on plain wheat Brötchen xD
I'm just pointing out Brötchen aren't real bread like the previous comment said. It's the right bread for the given task but not something I'd consider real bread like Bauernbrot or Schwarzbrot
This depends on the region. In Baden-Württemberg for example wheat bread and bread rolls are the most common ones whereas rye bread and mixed grains are less eaten.
Can I get some more clarification on the bread-toast distinction you’re making here? Do you just mean not stuff that comes from the grocery store or is it a shape-based distinction? Is a bakery loaf also not real bread? What about a non-loaf bread but from a cheap grocery store brand?Â
Canada. Given that I’ve asked about your bread reasoning you can assume I don’t already know. In English lots of different types of bread can be toast if you slice and toast it so maybe something is lost in translation here.Â
Yes , in Germany only a specific type of bread is called toast. But Germans typically don't know that this isn't the case in English because the word is English. It is the square soft sliced white wheat bread that comes in plastic bags from the supermarket and is used for sandwiches in North America. In Germany, this type of bread goes in the toaster. People usually don't eat it untoasted. And other bread typically doesn't go in the toaster. What Germans call "real" bread is much denser, with a hard crust and mostly darker and comes from a bakery. It's often, but not always, sourdough and made of rye. But there are many varieties.
I didn't want to be unpolite. It's just very complicated without sounding like a dick. Where ever I travelled there is no bread like at home and even these breadrolls that are the best for mett are quite unique eventhough they are the cheapest you get in a bakery. Bread is a bit of a religion over here and hard to explain
Okay so this person is just saying it can’t be sliced bread and assuming that means better bread but not factoring in for the possibility of a really crap roll

Mettbrötchen are peak amazing.
Along with onions, salt, and pepper, just like on the picture. If you ever visit Germany, make sure to try out one.
Also keep in mind, those Brötchen are real bread – not soft toasts. (If you think there‘s no difference, try real bread first.)
Yes, not everyone likes them. That‘s true for every dish. But I, for one, just love them.
