Cut the sausage into fine strips, cut the cheese into cubes and place in a bowl. Use a cucumber slicer to cut the red, peeled onions and pickles directly into the bowl.
Mix the marinade with the remaining ingredients and season with salt and pepper. If it gets too acidic, you can use more water. Pour the marinade over the salad and let it steep for at least 3 hours.
Fresh, strong, dark bread or pretzels also taste good.
