This charcuterie specialty made from the digestive tract of the pig is most often eaten as an aperitif.

She would have been born in the Middle Ages, in Jargeau in the Loiret.

From the 18th century, many variations and recipes of andouille appeared and were to become regional specialties: Troyes, Vire, Cambray, Guémené...

In theory, the andouille consists of the entire "belly" of the pig, namely the intestines and the tripe.

Most andouille sausages are smoked and are 25 to 30 cm long.

Depending on the recipes, other parts of the pork, condiments, wine, spirits, spices will be added.
