How to Make Your Own Homemade Charcuterie with Cebonat

Discover the pleasure of making your own charcuterie at home with Cebonat. We guide you through the essential steps, using high-quality natural casings and selected spices to guarantee a tasty and authentic result.

Choosing the Right Casings

The selection of casings is a fundamental aspect of making homemade charcuterie. At Cebonat, we offer a variety of premium natural casings, including sheep casings, hog casings, beef casings, and horse casings, each suited to specific types of sausages, salamis, and charcuterie.

Sheep casings are perfect for thin sausages such as mild chipolatas, spicy merguez, and frankfurters, offering a delicate texture and a fine taste. Hog casings, on the other hand, are ideal for a wider variety of sausages, ranging from Toulouse sausages, white or black pudding to tasty salamis, thanks to their versatility and robustness. For preparations requiring a more resistant casing, such as certain dry or cooked salamis, beef casings are essential, known for their strength and ability to retain aromas. You can also easily make beautiful and tasty andouille with horse casings.

Choosing high-quality casings from a professional like Cebonat ensures natural products, free from chemical or artificial treatments. We take care to select, calibrate, and prepare our casings with the utmost care, guaranteeing their taste qualities and natural integrity. This rigor in the choice and preparation of casings makes all the difference in the final result of your homemade charcuterie.

By choosing Cebonat, you benefit not only from the highest quality casings but also from expert advice to select the most suitable casing for each type of sausage. Our commitment to excellence ensures an authentic and successful culinary experience every time.
