Malta

A small archipelago between Sicily and North Africa where pork rules the native sausage tradition. Village bars serve zalzett with galletti crackers and peppered ġbejniet, and Gozo bakes it into its open-topped ftira.

Zalzett tal-Malti

Zalzett tal-Malti

Malta

Zalzett tal-Malti is Malta's own pork sausage: coarse-ground shoulder and belly seasoned with sea salt, cracked black pepper and a large dose of coriander seed. Chopped parsley leaves green flecks in the pink filling, and many fresh batches get garlic too. The links are short and plump and come in long chains. In a village bar they arrive sliced, next to galletti crackers and peppered ġbejniet.
