About Italian sausage
Italian sausage is a flavorful, seasoned pork sausage widely used in Italian cuisine. Traditionally, it’s made from ground pork and a blend of spices, including fennel, garlic, and sometimes red pepper flakes for a spicy variation. This sausage is a versatile ingredient, often featured in pasta dishes, pizzas, soups, and sandwiches. While Italian sausage is rich in protein, it can also be high in saturated fat and sodium, depending on the recipe. For a leaner option, look for turkey or chicken-based varieties. It contains vitamins like B6 and B12, which support energy metabolism, but should be consumed in moderation due to its calorie density. Italian sausage reflects Italy’s regional culinary traditions, bringing bold flavors to dishes with a balance of sweet and savory notes. It’s an iconic addition to meals, enjoyed for its taste, but worth considering its nutritional profile when included in your diet.
