Polish Kabanos
Description
Polish kabanos is a long, thin, and dry pork sausage known for its smoky flavor, which is intensified through air-drying and smoking. It is a popular and high-protein snack that can be enjoyed on its own or with other foods like mustard, cheese, or crackers. The name is derived from the Polish word for young pigs, "kabanek".
