So, what is boyau naturel?

Boyau naturel, also known as natural casing, refers to the thin and elastic membrane that is obtained from the intestines of animals such as sheep, hog, or beef. This ingredient has been used for centuries in traditional European cuisine for producing sausages, salami, and other types of charcuterie. Boyau naturel provides a natural and authentic appearance to these products, as well as a characteristic bite and texture. It is also highly permeable to smoke and moisture, which ensures optimal maturation and preservation of the meat. Despite being a perishable material, boyau naturel can be stored for a long time under proper conditions, making it a convenient and versatile ingredient for the food industry.
