Chef Notes
Käsekrainer sausage is a pork sausage filled with Emmentaler cheese with a flavor profile similar to andouille sausage. Käsekrainer sausages are considered Slovenian klobasa and are similar to kielbasa or Polish sausages.
Chef Michael notes that the flavor profiles in this sandwich are reminicent of flavors commonly found in charcuterie boards. To learn how to build a charcuterie board, visit Chef Elias Cairo's "How to Build a Charcuterie Board" tutorial located at the bottom of the page.
Chef Michael uses three connected Hawaiian rolls to create a bun for this sandwich. He flips the bun on its side, splits it lengthwise, and then lightly toasts it to create a bun similar in size to a traditional hot dog or sausage bun.
Wild arugula is thicker than regular arugula. This variety holds up better than others in this dish, and gives the sandwich a peppery flavor.
Whole grain mustard aioli, perfect for sausages and burgers, is made up of equal parts whole grain mustard and garlic aioli.
