droëwors

Droëwors (; Afrikaans for "dry sausage", from Dutch: "droge worst") is a Southern African snack food, based on the traditional, coriander-seed spiced boerewors sausage. It is usually made as a dunwors (Afrikaans for "thin sausage") rather than dikwors ("thick sausage"), as the thinner sausage dries more quickly and is thus less likely to spoil before it can be preserved. If dikwors is to be used, it is usually flattened to provide a larger surface area for drying.

The recipe used for these dried sausages is similar to that for boerewors, although pork and veal are usually replaced by beef, as the former can go rancid when dried, and mutton fat replaces the pork fat used in boerewors. Drying makes the sausage suitable for unrefrigerated storage.
