The sausage is flavored with a variety of spices, including cardamom, coriander, ginger, nutmeg, onion, leek, celery and lemon.
In the 1438 statutes of the Butchers' Guild of St. Gallen, it is stipulated that this sausage must be produced with veal, bacon, spices and fresh milk.
[1] It is commonly eaten as street food with very few accompaniments, such as bread and mustard.
In the region of its origin the St. Galler Bratwurst is only served with bread without any sauces or mustard.
[2] But it is also part of several popular dishes, a notable example being rösti with veal sausage and onion sauce.
