Ham sausage is a flavorful deli meat made from a combination of finely ground ham and pork, seasoned with salt, spices, and often garlic or herbs. Originating from European cuisine, particularly German and Austrian traditions, this versatile sausage is enjoyed worldwide as a staple in sandwiches, charcuterie boards, and cooked dishes. It typically contains protein from the meat, along with essential vitamins like B12, zinc, and iron. However, it is often high in sodium and can be processed with preservatives, making moderation key for those watching their salt intake or seeking minimally processed foods. Depending on the recipe, fat content may vary, with some varieties offering leaner options. Ham sausage delivers smoky, savory flavor and satisfying texture, making it a popular choice for quick and easy meals. For a healthier option, look for low-sodium or nitrate-free versions.
