Wurstsalat offers a delightful balance of savory, tangy, and slightly sweet flavors. The sausage provides a meaty richness, while the vinegar dressing adds a refreshing acidity. Onions contribute a pungent and aromatic element.
The dominant flavor comes from the sausage itself, typically a cooked sausage like Cervelat or Lyoner. The vinegar dressing, often a simple vinaigrette, cuts through the richness of the sausage and adds a bright, tangy counterpoint. Onions, thinly sliced, lend a sharp, aromatic bite. Variations might include sweet pickles or gherkins for added sweetness and acidity, or mustard for an extra layer of flavor.
