Skilandis
Lithuanian sausage From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Skilandis or Kindziukas is a Lithuanian matured sausage made of meat, fat, salt, pepper and garlic. The ground meat is traditionally pressed into a pig's stomach or bladder, but today may be contained in other skins. The sausage is dried and cold-smoked.[1][2][3] Skilandis dates back to at least the 16th century - the word skilandis is referred to in documents from various locations across the Grand Duchy of Lithuania as early as in the 16th-18th centuries.[4]
The term Lietuviškas skilandis has been protected as a Traditional Speciality Guaranteed.[5] Originally, the term Skilandis was proposed, but following a national opposition procedure, the name was changed to Lietuviškas skilandis.[6]
