Rookworst is a traditional Dutch sausage made primarily from pork, although variations may include beef or veal. It is typically seasoned with spices such as salt, pepper, and nutmeg, giving it a distinctive flavor. Rookworst is often smoked, which adds to its rich taste and aroma. This sausage is commonly served with stamppot, a popular Dutch dish made from mashed potatoes mixed with vegetables. Rookworst is a staple during winter months and is especially enjoyed during festive occasions, such as Sinterklaas, when it is often featured in holiday meals.
