piece(s) scallion stalks, finely chopped
pinch cumin, pepper and color to taste
thin pork casings, very clean
Directions
- Mix all ingredients and stir well, let rest for a while.
- Prepare the casings and stuff without pressing too much so they don't burst.
- Then separate the casing every 12 centimeters tying with string.

- Unlike other sausages in the country that are fried, these are cooked in boiling water for 20 minutes.
- Serve with arepas and tomato slices.
