About Droerwors
Droëwors is a traditional South African dried sausage made from coarsely ground beef or game meat, mixed with spices like coriander, salt, black pepper, and occasionally vinegar for flavor. Inspired by the culinary traditions of boerewors, droëwors is air-dried rather than cooked, resulting in a lightweight, shelf-stable snack popular with hikers and outdoor enthusiasts. Its drying process intensifies the flavors and creates a protein-rich, nutrient-dense food high in iron and B vitamins. While it offers a convenient source of energy, droëwors can also be high in sodium and saturated fats, depending on the recipe. Traditionally made without fillers or preservatives, it caters to low-carb or paleo lifestyles, but moderation is advised due to its salt and fat content. Droëwors is a quintessential fixture of South African cuisine, blending hearty flavors with practical portability.
