Ingredients

  • ¾ pound pork sausages (leberwurst, bratwurst, or knackwurst), cooked
  • 1 medium red onion
  • 6 whole radishes
  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley or chives, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice each sausage lengthwise in half, then turn it cut-side down and slice crosswise into 1/2-inch half-moons, so each piece looks like a thick comma.

  2. 2

    Cut the red onion in half from root to tip, place cut-side down on the cutting board, and slice crosswise into very thin half-rings about 1/16 inch thick, like paper-thin crescents.

  3. 3

    Place each radish on the cutting board and slice very thinly (1/16 inch), as thin as you can, using a sharp knife or a vegetable peeler to shave them.

  4. 4

    Add the sliced onion and 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar to a large bowl, then stir gently and let sit for 1 minute to soften the onion slightly.

  5. 5

    Add the sausage pieces, radish slices, 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper to the same bowl and toss gently until everything is coated evenly.

  6. 6

    Scatter the chopped fresh parsley or chives over the top and toss once more to combine.

Tools you’ll need
