Andouillette

Andouillette (pronunciation: /ɑ̃.du.jɛt/) is a type of sausage made from pork, specifically the intestines or chitterlings, that is a popular dish in France.

Etymology

The term "Andouillette" is derived from the Old French andouille, which in turn comes from the Medieval Latin inductilia, meaning "things to be introduced". This refers to the process of stuffing the sausage casing with the meat mixture.
