At the table

In the recipe published by Visit Tuscany, the sausage is removed from its casing and mixed with stracchino before being spread on country bread. This is a cooked appetizer, not a recommendation to eat fresh sausage raw.

Follow the recipe and the product’s applicable cooking guidance; a generic sausage name does not guarantee one seasoning blend.
