About Mettwurst

Mettwurst is a traditional German sausage made from finely ground pork, occasionally combined with beef. Seasoned with spices such as white pepper, nutmeg, garlic, and coriander, it undergoes a curing process that can be smoked or air-dried, resulting in a soft, spreadable texture or firmer consistency depending on regional variations. Native to German cuisine, Mettwurst is typically enjoyed as a spread on bread or as part of cold platters. While it is a good source of protein, Mettwurst is also high in fats and sodium, which may not make it suitable for those monitoring their heart health or trying to reduce salt intake. Its rich, savory flavor and high-calorie content make it more of an indulgent treat than an everyday food. For balanced consumption, enjoy Mettwurst alongside whole-grain bread and fresh vegetables to complement its robust taste with added nutritional benefits.
