An artisanal cotechino made from high-quality pork.
A traditional culinary dish that is meant to be eaten on the first day of the year as a good luck dish (or the last), it is a typical winter dish and remains on tables throughout the cold season. Serve it with lentils or a voluptuous mashed potato with typical polenta and the demeanor of your guests will give way to a lusty appetite.
Brescian artisanal cotechino: cooking, pairing, and buying tips
What is Bbuono’s artisanal pure pork sausage?
This is our handmade cotechino made with only Italian pork, raised in the Brescia area, traditional spicing and artisan tying.
It is the classic winter cooking sausage, perfect with polenta and lentils.
Approximate size 0.6-0.8 kg, ideal for 4-6 servings. If you are looking for an “old-fashioned” flavor and territorial supply chain, this is the right choice.
How to store it and when is it appropriate to order it?
If fresh/vacuum-packed, keep it in the refrigerator at 0-4 °C and observe the date indicated. After cooking, store it in the refrigerator and consume within 2-3 days. For longer periods consider freezing (whole or sliced, tightly wrapped). To ensure freshness, we work with refrigerated shipments and scheduled deliveries at the beginning of the week: plan ahead during cold months and holidays.
How to cook cotechino (times, tricks and variations)?
Start with cold water and gentle heat: prick the casing, wrap it in gauze and simmer 2-3 hours (1 h in pressure cooker). Let it rest 10 min in the hot water, then slice often.
What to pair it with? Ideas from the Brescia area
Timeless classics: yellow Garda polenta and stewed lentils with bay leaves. Brescian twists: cream of Bagòss, sweet and sour vegetables, puree or stewed savoy cabbage.
Wines: young Garda/Valtènesi reds or dry bubbles.
Bread: thick crust, lightly toasted.
