Step by step recipe

1	Wrap 1 Morteau sausage in a piece of aluminium foil and cook in the oven at 390°F (200°C) for 45 minutes.
2	When cooked and while still hot, remove and discard the sausage skin (though this is not essential). Set aside.
3	Roll out 300 g Brioche dough (low-sugar version) with a rolling pin into a rectangle the same width as your tin or mould.
4	Spread 200 g metton cancoillotte over the rectangle of brioche dough and press in with your hand to help it stick, or go over lightly with the rolling pin.
5	Lay the sausage at one end of the rectangle...
6	...and roll up.
7	Put the roll in the tin with the "seam" downwards and glaze the top.
8	Leave in a warm place for about 1 hour 30 minutes to rise.
9	Preheat the oven to 360°F (180°C). Glaze the brioche again. If your mould has a lid, put this on.
10	Bake for about 40 minutes.
11	Serve one thick slice per person, with a generous dose of Vin Jaune sauce poured over.
