About Sucuk

Sucuk is a flavorful dry-cured sausage traditionally found in Turkish and surrounding cuisines, including Middle Eastern and Balkan regions. Made primarily from ground beef or lamb, it's seasoned with a bold blend of spices such as garlic, cumin, paprika, and sumac, giving it a distinctively rich and spicy taste. Typically very fatty, sucuk is high in saturated fats and sodium, which may not make it ideal for individuals with certain dietary concerns. However, its protein content can be appealing to those seeking an energizing, protein-rich option. Due to its intense flavor, it is often used sparingly in dishes, such as grilled, fried, or included in egg-based meals. While sucuk offers a satisfying indulgence, moderation is key to balancing its nutritional impact within a healthy diet.
