About White sausage

White sausage, known as "Weisswurst" in German, is a traditional Bavarian delicacy made primarily from minced veal, pork back fat, and a blend of mild spices like parsley, lemon, mace, and onion. Often encased in natural pork casing, it is distinct for its pale color, which comes from the exclusion of curing agents or heavy smoking. Typically enjoyed as part of a German breakfast alongside pretzels and sweet mustard, it is simmered rather than fried or grilled. While white sausage is a good source of protein, it can also be high in fats, particularly saturated fat, due to the pork fat content. It is relatively low in preservatives or additives, making it a less processed option compared to many other sausages. However, its nutritional healthiness depends on portion size and pairing choices, as traditional sides may add sodium and carbohydrates to the meal.
