Paraszt kolbász is a chorizo-style Hungarian smoked sausage, seasoned with sweet paprika powder. It boasts a rich, smoky aroma and an intense meaty flavour.

What is it?

Paraszt kolbász is a rustic, farmhouse-style charcuterie often made at home in the countryside, following a classic recipe. It is crafted from coarsely ground pork meat and bacon, expertly seasoned with plenty of Hungarian paprika and various spices. The mixture is then filled into an edible casing and traditionally cold-smoked over fragrant hardwood.

How can I use it?

Softer and juicier than Gyulai kolbász, this versatile sausage is delicious on its own but also excellent for cooking.

• Parasztkolbász is an essential part of traditional Hungarian breakfast platters; pair it with fresh bread, tomatoes, and bell peppers for a hearty start to your day.
• It makes a great addition to sandwiches or scrambled eggs.
• You can slice it thinly and add it to pasta sauces or enjoy it as a topping for flatbreads with sour cream and cheese.
• This smoked meat is perfect for preparing authentic versions of traditional dishes such as bean goulash, cabbage stew, and potato gratin, adding an extra layer of flavour.
