A Little Love Letter

The „Stramme Max“ is originally a German dish traditionally served as a slice of sourdough bread with ham and fried eggs. There are countless variations and modifications, as it is super simple and makes a delicious breakfast. Here you will find my version as a slightly crisper one with fresh tomatoes and my pickle & red onion salsa as well as a freshly baked ciabatta bun. Let’s enjoy this bun of happiness.

To serve Strammer Max, start by toasting a slice of your favorite bread. Fry eggs to your desired doneness. Place the ham and eggs on the toasted bread. Add a touch of freshness with sliced tomatoes and a zesty pickle and red onion salsa. Serve it open-faced for a picturesque presentation.

While Strammer Max is best enjoyed fresh, you can prepare components in advance. Store ham and eggs separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator. Assemble just before serving to maintain the ideal texture. If you have leftover Strammer Max, refrigerate it, but be aware that the bread may lose its crispiness upon reheating.

A Little Love Letter

This salsa is a symphony of crisp pickles and zesty red onions and a burst of tangy freshness that transforms any meal into a flavor-packed experience.

Pair our salsa with grilled meats for a barbecue sensation, spoon it over german „Strammer Max“ for a zingy twist, or enjoy it as a refreshing side with chips or baguette. 

To preserve its crispiness and flavor, store the salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Consume within 3-4 days for optimal taste. Serve chilled, and let the delightful combination of pickles and red onions add a lively touch to your favorite dishes.
