Questions about Vienna sausage
What are Vienna sausages?
They are small, smooth, fully cooked sausages, often sold in tins. You can eat them cold, or warm them for a quick meal.
How do you heat Vienna sausages without splitting them?
Drain them and warm gently in simmering water for about 3–5 minutes; a hard boil can split the skins. You can also slice them and fry briefly until hot.
What can you make with Vienna sausages?
Slice them into baked beans, fried rice or pasta sauce, or serve them with mashed potato and mustard. They are also used in Filipino-style spaghetti, often with a sweet tomato sauce.
What can you use instead of Vienna sausages?
Small frankfurters or cocktail sausages are the closest swaps. Cut larger sausages into bite-sized pieces if you want a similar size in a stew or pasta dish.
How should you store Vienna sausages after opening the tin?
Transfer leftovers to a covered container, refrigerate promptly and use within 3–4 days. Don’t store them in the opened tin.
Are Vienna sausages safe for young children?
They can be a choking hazard because they are firm and cylindrical. For a young child, cut each sausage lengthways into thin strips, then into small pieces, and supervise while they eat.
