Ingredients:

Serving

8 links good-quality bratwurst , bockwurst , weisswurst , or knackwurst sausages
1/4 cup olive or vegetable oil , plus a drizzle
1 cup white wine vinegar
1/4 to 1/3 cup sugar , eyeball it
8 peppercorns
2 to 3 whole cloves
2 fresh bay leaves
1 tsp sea salt
1 small head red cabbage or 1/2 medium head, cored and thinly shredded , 1 lb
1 medium red onion, peeled, halved, and thinly sliced
1 green apple, quartered, cored, and thinly sliced
1 tsp caraway seed
salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 slices pumpernickel bread
8 tbsp (1 stick) butter, softened
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh herbs , such as chives , dill , or flat-leaf parsley
1 cup good quality spicy mustard
fresh radishes, trimmed and lightly salted
cornichons or baby gherkin pickles

Directions:

Put the sausages in a skillet over high heat and add 1/2-inch of water and a drizzle of oil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and allow the liquid to evaporate, cooking the sausages through. Once the liquid evaporates, the oil will help brown and crisp up the casings.
Combine the vinegar, sugar, peppercorns, cloves, bay leaves, and sea salt in a small pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, stir, then lower the heat to medium-low and let the brine reduce for 5 to 6 minutes.
While the brine reduces, combine the cabbage, red onions, and apples in a large serving bowl. Sprinkle with caraway or cumin seed, if you like the flavor.
Pour the hot reduced brine through a strainer over the cabbage mixture in a slow stream. Evenly distribute it, then pour about 1/4 cup of oil over the salad. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and toss to combine.
Toast the bread. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter with the herbs. Spread the mixture on the warm toast.
Serve the sausages with the toast, slaw salad, mustard, radishes, and pickles.
