Weisswurst

Munich, Germany

The Weisswurst is a traditional Bavarian white sausage made from finely minced veal and fresh pork back fat, flavored with parsley, lemon zest, mace, onion, ginger, and cardamom. It is gently poached (never boiled, never grilled) and eaten with sweet mustard, a fresh Breze (pretzel), and a Weissbier. The most famous rule in all of sausage culture: a Weisswurst must never hear the noon bells. It is a breakfast sausage, period.
