Saucisson Sec

Saucisson, which gets in name from salsus (salty in Latin) has been made in France since Roman times.  A savory blend of pork, sea salt and several other spices, this time-honored recipe from the Pyrenees Mountains of France is hearty in texture and rich in flavor.  Easy to eat, Saucisson Sec is enjoyable with (or without) a glass of wine and always pairs well with a wedge of lovely french cheese from Artisanal.  Each link is 8 oz.
