An Extrawurstsemmel is a classic Austrian snack—simple, cheap, and surprisingly satisfying. It’s made with a fresh, crusty Semmel (a traditional Austrian bread roll) filled with thin slices of Extrawurst, a mild, finely textured sausage similar to bologna or mortadella.
It’s usually spread with butter and often topped with extras like pickles, onions, or a slice of cheese. You’ll find it everywhere in Austria—from supermarkets to small deli counters—and it’s basically the go-to quick bite for when you want something no-fuss but very local.
