Bregenwurst

Bregenwurst is a traditional sausage originating from Lower Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt. The sausage is made from pork, pork belly, and (in the past) either pig or cattle brain. It's often enriched with the addition of white pepper, cumin, mace, and onions.

The name Bregenwurst is derived from the word bregen, meaning brain and referring to one of the ingredients used for its production. Bregenwurst is eaten raw as it is, but it's also often boiled or stewed, after which it develops a spreadable texture.
