Andouille
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
French andouille de Guémené.
Andouille (French pronunciation: [ɑ̃duj]; English: /ɑːnˈdwiː/ ahn-dwee) is defined as a coarse-grained smoked sausage made using pork, pepper, onions, wine, and seasonings.[1] Andouille is French in origin, and was later brought to the United States through Louisiana by French immigrants. In the United States, the sausage is most often associated with Cajun cooking.[1] Andouille sausages are sometimes referred to as "hot link" sausages.

[edit] Ingredients
Andouille is a spiced, heavily smoked pork sausage, distinguished in some varieties by its use of the entire gastrointestinal system of the pig. For example, traditional French andouille is composed primarily of the intestines and stomach. Though somewhat similar, it is not to be confused with andouillette.
