1. Cervelat / Cervelas
A short and stubby boiled sausage made with beef and smoked pork, the Cervelat (German) or the Cervelas (French) is considered by many as Switzerland’s national sausage. You’ll especially see it in the summertime, grilled or cooked over a fire. It can be eaten hot or cold. Another way to prepare Cervalat is in a “salad” with chunks of cheese.
2. Boutefas
Boutefas, a rather large smoked raw pork sausage, comes from the canton of Vaud. Its fat, asymmetrical shape is due to its natural casing, a pouch known as the cecum.
