STEAMED PRECOOKED COTECHINO

Cotechino is a typical dish of Northern Italy and along with Zampone, a staple of the richest winter dinners. It is produced with 100% Italian meats mixed with salt and spices, tied by hand and left to dry for 24 hours to give its unique flavour. COOKING TIPS: Put the bag in a pot with plenty of cold water, bring to the boil and then simmer for about 30 minutes. Cut a corner of the bag to release the broth formed during cooking. Serve hot. MICROWAVE COOKING: Remove the cotechino from the bag and put it with its jelly in a microwave safe container. Cook on medium intensity for 12 minutes. Turn it halfway through cooking.
