Brühwurst
Types of sausages according to German classification
Brühwurst ("scalded sausage" or "parboiled sausage") is the collective name for several types of sausages according to the German classification.[1] They are a cooked sausage that are scalded[2] (parboiled),[3] as opposed to being raw. They are typically prepared from raw meat that is finely chopped, are sometimes smoked, and are typically served hot.[3][4]
In the English-speaking world such sausages are usually divided into two classes: cooked sausages (e.g. hot dogs) and cooked smoked sausages (e.g. kielbasa).
