Comment fabriquer une «Kochwurst» (saucisse à faire cuire)? Les «Kochwürste» sont principalement fabriquées avec de la viande bouillie ou précuite. En général, elles sont solidifiées, à l'exception de la «Leberwurst» (saucisse au pâté de foie) qui à froid est prête à être tartinée. En dehors de la viande et du lard, on utilise aussi du foie (pour la saucisse au pâté de foie), de la langue (pour la saucisse à la langue) et du sang (par exemple pour le boudin ou la saucisse de Thüringe «Thüringer Rotwurst»). Ces ingrédients sont broyés, salés, assaisonnés et chauffés une nouvelle fois après avoir été mis dans des boyaux naturels ou artificiels. En y ajoutant certaines épices ou truffes, on obtient une grande variété de produits. Le cas échéant, on peut donner ou non un goût de fumée à l'ensemble. Les «Kochwürste» ne se conservent pas très longtemps, il faut donc les consommer rapidement et les garder au réfrigérateur. 7, record 5, French, - Kochwurst
