Weisswurst breakfast

A Weißwurst breakfast brings together pale sausages, sweet mustard and pretzels, often with wheat beer. It is particularly associated with Munich and Bavarian morning meals. The sausages contain veal, commonly with pork as well, and are warmed in hot water rather than browned on a grill. They are usually eaten without their casing, either cut open with a knife or drawn out in the traditional manner known as zuzeln.^[1][2]

The customary advice is to eat Weißwurst before noon. Accounts connect this habit with the difficulty of keeping freshly made sausages cool before refrigeration, though modern restaurants may serve them later in the day. A well-known story places their invention in nineteenth-century Munich, but it is presented as a tradition rather than a settled historical fact. The breakfast remains a recognizable combination of sausage, mustard and bread.^[1][2]
