These are Catalan Sausages, and after the first experience with Spanish sausages being positive, I decided to try these as well.
These are a mixture of pork mince, with Pancetta, with water, salt, sugar, and more of those vegetable fibres. They smelled great, before they even hit the pan – and I was hoping for another Toulouse Sausage experience.
The first bite was really positive – the sausage was very juicy (surprising so – maybe it was all the water that was added in) and taste of pork with the Pancetta came through. But there the balance of these sausages started to go wrong. There was way too much salt, which on initially tasting was very positive, when it came to eating the whole sausage the overall build up in the pallet was wrong. Just a bit too salty…
Overall, despite the salt balance the overall sausage was still pretty good. Its getting a 6 out of 10
