Musetto

This sausage, made with flesh from the pig’s snout (muso), is a speciality of Friuli and the area of Trenito Alto Adige, in the north-west of Italy. The pork meat is very finely minced with some fat and put in a gut with part of the snout and sometimes the pig’s skin. It is served and cooked like cotechino, but in the north is accompanied by either sauerkraut or red cabbage stewed with vinegar and wine.
