Cooking in water:

It's the more often used way, but unfortunately the less best one: a part of the sausage taste flavor with cooking water.

Put the sausage in a large pan and cover with cold water, don't prick it because water would get inside and spoil the flavor, cook on medium heat, covered with a lid, for 40 minutes.

Note: Then you can use the cooking water, for cooking rice or pasta 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.

Sweetcrust pastry is one of the basic pastry of French patisserie, used in many tart and cakes recipes, but it can also be rolled out and cut into biscuits, delicious with tea or coffee. This recipe is given for those who have a mixer (Kenwood, KitchenAid or other), but it can also be done with your hands. Please note that it's very important to make it several hours before using it, if possible the day before, as then it's much easier to work.

  • 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.
