Brabantian worstenbroodje

Brabantian worstenbrood is a typical savoury pastry snack from the Dutch province of North-Brabant. The loaf is about six inches long and is filled with ground beef sausage.[1] In contrast to the "saucijzenbrood", the Brabantian worstenbrood is not made from puff pastry, but made from soft white bread dough. The sausage bread originated as a way to make meat more durable by rolling and baking it. Traditionally it was mainly eaten during Christmas (especially after Midnight Mass) and Carnival. The snack is often served on terraces and cafes in the south of the country. It is also sold in other Dutch provinces, but mainly at supermarkets.[2]
