In Austria there are many kinds of sausages. The one that is generally considered to be the equivalent of an American hot dog is the Bosner. It consists mainly of a sausage (Bratwurst), onions, and a blend of tomato ketchup, mustard, and curry powder. Bosner is made with white bread and is usually grilled briefly before serving (“Cuisine of Austriaâ€). Sausage is a very popular food in Germany and Austria and they take great pride in producing good ones. The Viennese hot dog has more spices and flavorings than the typical American hot dog.
