Saucisse de Toulouse


Saucisse de Toulouse or "Toulouse Sausage" is a fresh sausage originating from Toulouse in the southwest of France. It is made from pork (75% lean, 15% belly), salt and pepper, has a natural casing of about 3cm in diameter and is usually sold in a coil (like Cumberland Sausage). It does not normally contain preservatives.

It is an ingredient of most Cassoulet recipes and is also served grilled or confit.

Saucisse de Toulouse does not have a protected status so variations on the original recipe can be sold under the same name. Producer's organisations have proposed a Label Rouge designation for the product.
