Vegan white sausages without a single gram of meat? Of course, it is possible! Grab a recipe for a vegan white sausage that’s perfect for your Easter table. Even if it does not resemble meat sausage exactly I can tell you that you won’t be disappointed with the flavour!
Background
In the old Polish tradition, apart from hams and roasted meats, the Easter table was filled with excellent sausages. White sausage is one of the most popular products on the Easter table. Although most of us think that this is a typical Polish speciality, it actually comes from a traditional white sausage, also known as Weisswurst, that dates back to the early 19th century in Bavaria, Germany. The sausage is traditionally made from veal and pork and is flavoured with parsley, lemon, cardamom, and other spices. Served hot, boiled in water, with beetroot, horseradish or horseradish sauce.
The search for perfect vegan white sausages
In recent years, the popularity of vegan and vegetarian diets has led to the creation of plant-based versions of traditional meat dishes, including white sausages.
For several years I have been looking for a recipe for the perfect vegan white sausage. I can honestly admit that I have tried it several times and that I have never been satisfied with the end result. I can’t post anything on a blog if I’m not sure that it will come out and, most importantly, it will be tasty.
This sausage can be eaten cold and tastes perfect on a sandwich with the addition of horseradish or my old-time favourite hummus!

What do you need to make vegan white sausages:
sausages
white beans – I love small cannellini beans.
tofu – Do not use silken tofu but a nice firm texture tofu.
smoked tofu – I would not avoid it as it gives that nice smokey flavour very characteristic of sausages.
cooked buckwheat – it gives a nice nutty, slightly bitter flavour
flavour – wild garlic, marjoram, soy sauce, white pepper, salt
sauce
onion
mustard – grainy mustard works particularly well here as it is mild in flavour and adds great texture
wine – adds delicious flavour to the sauce.
veggie stock
coconut milk
xylitol – you can add any other sweetener you prefer.
favour – pepper, thyme, horseradish, nutmeg,
I don’t like the idea of foil touching my food, what can I do?
You could wrap these vegan sausages in silicone baking parchment or muslin first, then foil. Don’t use non-silicone parchment though, or your sausages will stick. Unfortunately, it kills me to say that foil works best here …
What kind of beans should I use?
Any white beans are fine. Or you could use chickpeas. My preference is for cannellini or butter beans.
What to serve vegan white sausages with?
Traditionally it is served with boiled potatoes but it tastes equally delicious with any grain, especially cooked buckwheat!
How to store the vegan white sausages
Once you’ve cooked the white sausages, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. If you’re looking to store them for longer, you can also freeze them for up to 2-3 months.
To reheat the sausages, simply place them in a preheated oven at 180°C for 10-15 minutes or until they are heated through. You can also reheat them in a pan with a little oil or grill them for a crispy exterior.

You have come up with an intriguing recipe. I am not a huge fan of tofu but I hadn’t tried smoked tofu yet. That might work better for us. Something to think about…
Thanks for sharing!
Interesting recipe. I am not a vegan but I want to try these recipes
