The history of the Cotechino is probably older than that of the Zampone as it dates back to 1745, while its more classic counterpart from Modena dates back to 1785.
It is the best-selling pre-cooked sausage in Italy, easy to cook and very tasty, and presents as a pure pork sausage with a synthetic casing (which is removed after cooking) containing a mixture of minced pork with salt and flavourings.
The colour of the meat is a variegated pinkish red; it has a very pleasant aroma and a full flavour.
