About Square sausage

Square sausage, also known as Lorne sausage, is a traditional Scottish food staple. Typically crafted from minced beef or pork, it is blended with breadcrumbs, spices like nutmeg and black pepper, and occasionally salt. Its distinct rectangular shape sets it apart from standard link sausages, making it ideal for breakfast rolls or fry-ups. Originating in Scotland, it’s celebrated as part of classic Scottish breakfasts. Nutritionally, square sausage is an excellent source of protein, making it a satisfying and energy-boosting option. However, it is often high in saturated fat and sodium, depending on the recipe used. Moderation is recommended, particularly when paired with other rich breakfast items. Opting for lower-fat or reduced-sodium versions can make it a healthier choice while still retaining the warmth and flavor that define this cherished Scottish delicacy.
