About Tuscan sausage
Tuscan Sausage is a flavorful Italian dish rooted in the culinary traditions of Tuscany. Made primarily from high-quality pork, it is often seasoned with classic ingredients such as fennel, garlic, black pepper, and sometimes chili flakes for a hint of spice. Its bold, aromatic taste captures the rustic essence of Tuscan cuisine. While packed with protein, Tuscan Sausage can be high in saturated fats and sodium, making moderation key for a balanced diet. Some artisanal varieties may include natural casings and lack preservatives, which can be a healthier option. Typically used in pasta dishes, soups, or served alongside vegetables, Tuscan Sausage is versatile yet indulgent, providing a hearty addition to meals but best enjoyed as part of a balanced approach to nutrition.
