Prinskorv, which directly translates to "prince sausage", is a small Swedish sausage which is often sold in links. Created in 1805 by Viennese butcher Georg Lahner, this dish is usually fried in a frying pan and served with a generous helping of mustard. It is also a popular element of julbord, the traditional Swedish Christmas buffet-style table.
In southern Sweden, during the midsummer party, it is enjoyed alongside Janssons frestelse, a Swedish casserole consisting of potatoes, onions, pickled sprats, and cream. Prinskorv, literally translated as prince sausage, got its name after specific cuts at each end, which resemble small crowns.
