Charcuterie

Cured Ham

A flavourful delicacy, dry ham has stood the test of time. Like cooked ham, it is made from the pig's hind leg, salted, and then left to dry for several months or even years. The drying and aging time varies by region. Factors like the pig’s quality and diet, salting process, the butcher's expertise, and the aging conditions all influence the ham's flavour.

Saucisson sec and saucisse sèche

Saucisson sec is made from a mixture of finely chopped pork meat and fat, seasoned, and stuffed into a casing. It is then dried and aged for 4 to 10 weeks in a cool room (12–14°C). Saucisse sèche, often made from fresh female pig meat, is thinner than saucisson sec and dries faster, usually in 3 to 4 weeks. The drying process occurs in specific conditions (cold, humid, and not too intense), with mountainous regions like Auvergne and Savoie being ideal. It can be straight or curved like a horseshoe.

Black Pudding

Black pudding is made from pig's blood and fat. It is then seasoned, encased , and cooked in a broth. In the history of food, black pudding is one of the oldest known charcuterie products.

Cooked Ham

Cooked ham is usually served in very thin slices. This classic charcuterie is made by brining meat and cooking. Its delicate flavour and tenderness make it a favourite for both children and adults.

Pâté en croûte

One of the world's most renowned charcuterie specialties. Typically made of lean meats mixed with stuff, wrapped in pastry and baked into elegant table center pieces.

Chipolata Sausage

Made with raw sausage meat, chipolatas and Toulouse sausages are a must for any barbecue. The chipolata is slim, about 2 cm in diameter and 17 cm long, typically weighing 55g. It’s usually plain but can be seasoned with herbs or spices. Wrapped in an elastic sheep’s casing, it’s perfect for grilling.

Rillettes

Rillettes are typically made from pork that's slow-cooked. The meat is first browned and simmered until tender, giving rillettes their distinct texture.

Belly Bacon

Sliced belly, made from salted or brined pork belly, is cut into thin, almost translucent slices, about 20 cm long. It’s essential for a full English breakfast and adds a savoury touch to brunches. Bacon, made from lean pork tenderloin, is trimmed, salted, and smoked, with almost no fat, making it a great diet-friendly choice.

Andouille Sausage

Andoulle sausage typically consists of offal like the throat, breast, head, or heart. Various recipes may include salt, herbs, spices, wine, alcohol, or condiments. The sausage is then cooked, often smoked.

Garlic sausages

These sausages are prepared with a fine mince of pork, typically seasoned with other ingredients including an array of spices and egg white, and fresh garlic, depending on recipe. Garlic sausages are sometimes smoked and served with cold salads, sandwiches, or hot dishes like lentils and potato.

Patés and terrines

These culinary classics are typically made of meat stuffing and offal and bound by gelatin, milk and eggs. Textures and tastes vary depending on recipes and in the preparation method. Some of which date back hundreds of years.
