About Kenyan sausage
Kenyan sausage, locally known as "smokie," is a popular snack and street food originating from Kenya. It is typically made from finely minced beef or pork seasoned with garlic, onions, coriander, and other spices, offering a savory flavor profile. These sausages are often grilled or boiled and served with accompaniments like kachumbari (a tomato-onion salsa) or stuffed into a bread roll for a satisfying bite. While Kenyan sausages provide a source of protein, they are also known for their rich fat content, which may not be ideal for individuals monitoring cholesterol or caloric intake. They are relatively high in sodium due to curing processes and seasoning, so moderation is recommended. As a convenient and tasty option, Kenyan sausage represents an integral part of Kenyan cuisine but should be enjoyed consciously to balance nutritional needs.
