Falukorv

Falukorv is a traditionally made sausage that originally stems from the city of Falun, but is nowadays made by several meat companies in Sweden. The sausage is made with a mixture of pork and beef or veal meat that has been ground and combined with potato starch, water, and a selection of mild spices.

The meat content in the sausage must be at least 40%. Its flavor is smoky and salty, while the color of falukorv, once sliced, is brownish-pink. The sausage can be eaten on its own, fried, used in sandwiches or in Beef Stroganoff where it stands as a substitute for beef.
