About Frankfurter, meat, heated
Sausage is a savory, seasoned meat product made by grinding pork, beef, poultry, or plant-based proteins with salt, herbs, and spices, then stuffing the mixture into a casing or shaping it into patties and links. One of the oldest ways to preserve and flavor meat, it spans fresh links like Italian and breakfast sausage, smoked and cured types such as kielbasa and chorizo, and dried styles like salami and pepperoni.
Sausage supplies protein, B vitamins, iron, and zinc, though many kinds run high in fat and sodium, so they are best enjoyed in moderation. Pan-fry or grill fresh sausage until cooked through, simmer it in sauces, stews, and soups, crumble it into pasta and pizza, or slice cured varieties for sandwiches and boards. Keep fresh sausage refrigerated and use it within a few days, freeze it for longer storage, and always cook raw sausage to a safe internal temperature.
