Their other name is Herrgottbescheißerle, or (roughly translated) lord god bullshitters, because they are said to have originated in Swabia as a way for people to eat meat during lent, because the meat was fully encased in dough, and therefore god wouldn’t see people eating it. I don’t know if that’s really true, but it’s a good story and a funny name.
Which is funnier because OP said theirs is vegetarian.
Yeah, I wanted to specify because I didn’t cook them and I don’t know if that’s safe for the meat ones. It’s moderate gremlin behavior, but I eat them straight out of the packet and they’re still bomb. I prefer the taste of them fried with onions, but not enough that it’s worth doing too often. Plus, they’re perfect nutritional macros for me as they are. People also eat them in broth, sometimes with vegetables, but I always find they’re kind of inconvenient to eat as a soup.
They are safe raw. Maultaschen are filled with "Brät" which is coocked or fried (gebraten). At least the traditional ones. And the normal Bürger Maultaschen do as well. You might find some variety thats raw but i doubt it for any you find in the store.
