Wurstsalat is a delightful and tangy sausage salad that hails from Germany, especially popular in the southern regions. This refreshing dish combines the savory flavors of ring bologna or lyoner sausage with the sharpness of pickled gherkins and the zest of onions, all brought together with a simple yet flavorful dressing of white wine vinegar and sunflower oil. It's often enjoyed as a light meal or appetizer, perfect for warm weather picnics or as part of a hearty spread at a gathering.

Servings: 4

Ingredients

Ring bologna or lyoner sausage
8 ounces, sliced into thin strips or rings
Pickled gherkins
1 cup, sliced (optional)
Onion
1 medium, peeled and finely sliced
Sunflower oil
1/4 cup
White wine vinegar
3 tablespoons
Salt
to taste
Black pepper
to taste

Instructions

  1. Begin by slicing the ring bologna or lyoner sausage into thin strips or rings, ensuring they are uniform for even mixing.
  2. Peel and finely slice the onion, making sure to cut it as thinly as possible to enhance the overall texture of the salad.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the white wine vinegar, sunflower oil, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well emulsified.
  4. Add the sliced sausage, onions, and pickled gherkins (if using) to the bowl and gently mix until everything is thoroughly coated with the dressing.
  5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the salad marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
  6. Serve the Wurstsalat chilled, garnished with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for an added touch of color and flavor.
