Cooking with water:

This is the simplest cooking method, but admittedly the worst: some of the sausage's flavor goes with the cooking water.

Place the sausage in a large saucepan and cover with cold water, without pricking it, set over medium heat and cook, covered, at a simmer for 40 minutes.

Note: The cooking water can be used to cook pasta or rice, for example.

Cooking in oven:

Tastier because the sausage cooks in its own juices, which concentrates flavors.

Wrap sausage in 2 layers of aluminum foil, put in the oven at 390°F (200°C), for approximately 40-45 minutes.

  • When I cook it skin on, it's so salty it's inedible. How do i fix that?

  • You can't, skin or not doesn't change the salty level.
    Are you sure that's real Morteau sausage, because real good ones are never too salty.
