natural casing
Sausage skin, organic
Natural casing is the cleaned intestine of an animal—typically pig, sheep, or cow—used as a sausage skin.
Before synthetic alternatives, all sausages were stuffed into natural casings.
They remain preferred for traditional sausages because they produce a distinctive snap when bitten: The butcher uses natural casing for his bratwurst.
