A Taste of Brabant in Your Own Kitchen
Ask anyone from the southern province of Noord-Brabant what the ultimate comfort food is, and they will likely point straight to a warm, freshly baked *worstenbroodje*. Traditionally served at cozy family gatherings, Sunday breakfasts, or local celebrations, these savory sausage rolls wrap spiced minced meat in a soft, slightly sweet bread jacket.
With this handy baking mix from Jumbo, you don't need to hop on a flight to Holland to enjoy that unmistakable bakery smell filling your home. It brings a wonderful, hands-on tradition straight to your Canadian kitchen, perfect for a rainy afternoon baking project or a treat during your weekend koffietijd.
How to Prepare Your Worstenbroodjes
What you need:
- 1 packet Jumbo Sausage Sandwich Mix (360g)
- 450g minced pork (or a mix of pork and beef)
- Butter and milk (as specified for the dough)
- 2 eggs (one for the filling/brushing)
- Water
Preparation steps:
- Make the Dough: Combine the bread mix with the specified amount of butter and milk. Knead using a mixer with dough hooks until smooth, shape into a ball, and let it rest.
- Prepare the Filling: Mix your minced meat with the included spice packet, a splash of water, and half of a beaten egg. Divide the mixture into 10 equal portions shaped into small logs.
- Assemble: Divide the rested dough into 10 pieces, roll them out into ovals, place a meat log in the center, and fold the dough tightly around it, pinching the seams.
- Bake: Place them seam-side down on a lined baking sheet, brush with the remaining egg, and bake in a preheated oven at 220 °C (or 200 °C fan) for about 20 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm and enjoy!
