Throwback Recipe: Classic 1960s Braunschweiger Spread

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Worcestershire sauce

🥗Healthier: soy sauce

💰Cheaper: balsamic vinegar

Soy sauce offers umami flavor at a lower cost

Slice the braunschweiger into chunks.

Chop the onion finely or use a chopper for a finer texture.

Let the cream cheese sit out to come to room temperature for easier mixing.

Add the chopped braunschweiger and minced onion to a mixing bowl.

Add 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise to the mixture.

Add 4 dashes of hot sauce to the mixture.

Mix all ingredients together until well combined.

Line a glass bowl with Saran Wrap.

Transfer the mixture into the lined bowl and press down to shape it.

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for about 1 hour to firm up.

Slice green olives for topping the spread after it has chilled.
