🇦🇹 Austria recipe

Kasekrainer

The Kasekrainer is Vienna's beloved street food, a coarsely ground pork sausage studded with cubes of Emmentaler cheese that melt into molten pockets during grilling. Invented in the 1960s and popularized at the city's iconic Wurlstandl sausage stands, a perfectly grilled Kasekrainer snaps audibly when you bite through the casing, releasing bursts of melted cheese alongside the seasoned, juicy pork.
