Kranjska klobasa

Kranjska klobasa, or Carniolan sausage, is a Slovenian pork sausage seasoned with garlic and pepper. Its filling contains pork and firm pieces of bacon in a pig-intestine casing. A wooden skewer holds it together. Smoking gives the surface a reddish-brown colour, while the cut sausage shows pink-red meat and pale pieces of fat.[1]

The sausage is cooked before serving and commonly eaten hot with cabbage or sour turnips. Bread or a white roll, mustard and grated horseradish accompany it. Its name refers to Carniola, a historical province in the territory of Slovenia.[1]
