Sausages are easy to make and provide enough health to become a staple food through most of the game.
Acquisition
To cook Sausages, you’ll need to combine 4 Entrails, Boar Meat, and Thistle in a level 2 Cauldron
When exploring the Swamp and its dungeons, make sure you’re collecting the Entrails dropped by the various Draugr, and you’ll be able to stockpile plenty of them.
Here’s where you’ll find the ingredients for your Sausages:
Entrails are dropped by the Draugr infesting the Swamp and the occasional Draugr Village in the Meadows.
Boar Meat is dropped by the boars roaming the Meadows.
Thistle is a glowing blue plant you’ll find in the Black Forest and Swamp biomes.
Draugr are some of the most common enemies in the game. You’ll find plenty of them in the Swamp biome, and especially in the Sunken Crypt dungeons found there. You’ll also run into some Draugr in the Draugr Villages occasionally appearing in the Meadows. When slain, they’re guaranteed to drop their Entrails.
When exploring the Swamp, also be on the lookout for Thistle. This plant, that also grows in the Black Forest, is one of the few resources that’s best collected at night – its blue glow is much easier to spot then. And for the final ingredient – Boar Meat – you’ll have to go back to the starting Meadows biome where boars are plentiful.
When you have the resources, you’ll also need a Cauldron (Tin x10) and a Spice Rack (Dandelion x3, Carrot x2, Mushroom x5, Thistle x3, Turnip x3) that acts as the Cauldron’s level 2 improvement. Place the Spice Rack near the Cauldron, then interact with the Cauldron itself to combine 4 Entrails, Boar Meat, and Thistle into 4 Sausages.

Feast Ingredient
Food
When you eat Sausages, your health will increase by 55, stamina by 18, and health regeneration by 3 hp/tick for 25 minutes. Sausages can be eaten together with up to two other food types, but you can’t eat more than one link of Sausages at a time.
When eaten, Sausages will grant you their buff, but it will grow weaker with time. When there’s just 50% of the buff’s duration left, or 12.5 minutes, the buff icon will flash, and you’ll be able to eat another link of Sausages to refresh the effects.
Feast Ingredient
The Bog Witch trader you can find in the Swamp enables the game’s Feast system by selling you the Serving Tray for 140 Coins, and some special herbs and spices. Sausages are an ingredient in one of the Feasts. Check out the Recipes section for more on that.

Helpful Tips
A single recipe of Sausages creates 4 Sausages, making it very easy to cook a lot of them.
Sausages weigh half of what most other foods do, and you can stack them up to 20, which makes them perfect for extended expeditions.
The health provided by Sausages is respectable enough for them to be eaten in much later biomes.
