Morteau saucers appeal to both guests and gourmets because of their generous, smoky taste and balance of texture. Connoisseurs are not mistaken: this is an inspired regional product of traditional crafts, whose authenticity and quality have been preserved. It, therefore, is in the heart of snow-capped plateaux and green wetlands that men and women can cultivate their traditional heritage to you in Franche-Comté, in 4 departments (Doubs, Jura, Haute-Saône, Territoire de Belfort, etc.). This passion, passed on by every player in the sector, gives IGP sausage morteau the genuine character and uniqueness of its taste.

Cooking on potatoes: 

It is the “lodge sausage,” which I call, and we cook it on a bed of peeled, cut potatoes in a large pan—a sheer pleasure.

         Steam :

To get steamed morteau sausage put a little platter on the bottom of the pot to hold the saucers out of the water. Add the sausages to the pot in about 2 cm of water. Cover and let cool for about 15 minutes. Bring to a boil. Terminate on the grill to pin the skin.

Why morteau sausage are famous?

The recipe of sausage is famous as Morteau sausage recipe, called Belle de Morteau, which is a pork sausage traditionally smoked and produced exclusively in French Country. It was born in the town of Morteau. It is produced at an altitude greater than 600 m on the plateau and in the Jura mountains (2,000 ft). At the center of this craft, the industry is the city of Morteau.

Because animals are traditionally fattened in this mountainous region, the cooking of smoked Morteau sausage ingredients is produced using only Franche-Comté pork. In addition, the lentil sausage cook must be smoked within the tuyé for at least 48 hours with the sawdust of the conifer and juniper, to be allowed to use the marking “Saucisse de Morteau.” However, it is not cooked since there is a strong air current accompanying the combustion. Many regular sausages are used to make hotdog.

The sausage of the Morteau is protected with the PGI label of the European Union, which ensures its quality, source, and method of preparation as a French regional specialty. A metal marking and a small wooden stick wrapped around the end of the line are usually provided by Authentic Morteau.
