Pylsupasta

Noodles with sausages

Many Icelanders love the hot dog sausages ( pylsur ), which can be bought everywhere here. These sausages consist of approximately 65% ​​meat, a mixture of lamb, pork and beef. There are also other ingredients such as water, skimmed milk powder and potato flour. At around 15%, these sausages have less fat than most hot dog sausages in other countries, but they have a relatively high protein content at around 13%.

And many Icelanders love their hot dog sausages not only in hot dogs ( pylsur ), but also in other everyday dishes, such as on pizza, in sausage rolls or as " sausages in the carpet " - or, as here, as pylsupasta - noodles with sausages...
