Learn to prepare Bavaria's most iconic breakfast — Weisswurst (white veal sausages), homemade Laugenbreze (lye pretzels), Obatzda cheese spread, and sweet Bavarian mustard — under the guidance of a professional Bavarian chef. Classes are held in a traditional Munich kitchen and conclude with eating your own creations with a Weißbier.
The Bavarian Cooking Class — Weisswurst and Pretzels is offered by operators such as Münchner Küche, Kochschule Munich, and KochVilla Munich, held in a traditional Munich kitchen and led by a professional Bavarian chef. Over 3 to 4 hours, participants prepare Weisswurst, homemade Laugenbreze pretzels, Obatzda cheese spread, and sweet Bavarian mustard, learning the full technique behind each dish rather than assembling pre-made components; the menu is savoury throughout, with no dessert course. The class includes all ingredients, recipe cards to take home, a Weißbier or non-alcoholic alternative, and a full meal eating the group's own creations at the end; it does not include transport to the kitchen or additional drinks beyond what is provided. Groups are capped between 4 and 12 people, instruction is conducted in English, and the pace allows time for questions and technique corrections at each stage. Dietary substitutions can be requested when booking, though the core dishes rely on veal sausage and dairy, so the class is not well suited to vegetarians without prior arrangement.
