There are different types of sausages. According to the method of preparation, they are divided into boiled, raw smoked, fried, half-smoked and Among the latter there is a long list of those already loved (practically the only type that could be found with difficulty even in the Soviet Union), basturma (aka pastrami) and, of course , sujuk. People have already tried what it is, and many have considered this sausage one of their favorite dishes.
Who should I thank for this dish?
Like most popular delicacies, many nations lay claim to the authorship of this meat product. Honestly, they all have their reasons for this. Even the names are in most cases consonant: in the Balkan countries it is pronounced “suchug”, in Kyrgyzstan - “chuchuk”, Kazakhs say “shuzhuk”, and in Bulgaria, Turkey and the Caucasus - “sujuk”. What is this if not common roots? However, if you turn to history, you can easily find out that such a sausage, which at one time triumphantly marched through cities and towns, spread throughout the world. It was she who gifted the north of Europe, the Middle Eastern states and Asia Minor with the now so beloved recipe. It is clear that over time, different peoples have made some changes not only in the pronunciation of the name, but also in the recipe, so that now sudzhuk sausage in different versions also has differences in taste nuances.
What is it made from?
It is difficult to say what kind of meat was at the heart of this sausage centuries ago. Considering that the Turks are still mostly Muslims, we can say with confidence that they certainly did not prepare the original sudjuk from pork. What is this in the modern world? A meat product that includes lamb, horse meat, beef, parts of a “dirty” animal, and a combination of all types of meat. An indispensable condition is drying, without any other processing, and a huge number of spices, the range of which may vary from country to country.
Historical paradoxes
It's funny how the meaning of such sausage has changed over the past six hundred years since sujuk began to spread. What was it like in those days? In modern language - an emergency reserve, a kind of canned food for the rainiest day. After all, this product, thanks to the peculiarities of its preparation and the abundance of spices, could be stored for a very, very long time. It was taken on long hikes and stored for times of famine. Now sujuk is a delicacy that does not appear on the table every day. And not on all holidays. Its cost is so high that even on a particularly significant day, not every person can afford such a purchase.
Sujuk in his kitchen
On the other hand, unlike many other authentic sausages, it can be prepared at home. Of course, homemade sujuk will require diligence on your part, and its preparation will take quite a lot of time, but the result may even surpass store-bought options. For food you will need a kilogram of meat. Which one you take is up to you. You can combine two types, for example, beef and lamb; one of them should be about twice as large as the other. If you find horse meat, it is better to combine it with pork, since horse meat is quite tough. The simplest composition of spices: one and a half tablespoons of salt and sugar, two teaspoons each of freshly ground black pepper, savory and paprika. It's a good idea to add half a glass of red breadcrumbs, but this is not necessary. Varying the set of seasonings is not only acceptable, but also encouraged. With successful experiments, you will end up with a completely unique sujuk, the recipe will be in great demand.
The meat is ground, the minced meat is carefully kneaded and combined with all the seasonings. All this is placed in a shallow bowl and placed in the refrigerator for a day to “ripen”.
The next day, the intestines are stuffed with this “filling”. They are sold in butcher shops already cleaned and prepared, so all that remains is to rinse them. The minced meat is not laid too tightly so that the shell does not tear and there is space inside it, which will subsequently be filled when rolled. Periodically, the intestine must be pierced with a needle. The stuffed sausage is tied on both sides and hung out in the cold. In winter this is not a problem - a balcony will do just fine, but in summer you need to look for a cold basement or place all your stuff in the refrigerator.
Giving the desired shape
From the second or third day, the sujuk begins to form the desired shape (remember, most versions of this sausage are flat). At home, this is done with a regular rolling pin. At first, while the filling has not yet dried, you must be extremely careful and not press too hard, so as not to tear the intestine. You need to roll from the center to the edges. On average, the drying process lasts from 8 to 10 days.
Cooking options
Note that homemade sujuk can be prepared in different ways. So, some chefs recommend immersing a stuffed sausage in boiling water for a couple of minutes before drying. This is not entirely consistent with the very principle of dried sausage, which should not be subjected to any other processing. But for home cooking, maybe the advice will come in handy.
Equally common is advice not to hang the sudzhuk out to dry with regular rolling, but to keep it under pressure. In principle, the result will be the same, and time will be saved.
So try it! Whichever recipe you like best is the one you will use in the future.
Sudzhuk is a type of dry-cured sausage, which is not inferior in taste to the famous dried jamon or Lukanka. Among the Turkic peoples, it is believed that only horse meat is suitable for suduk, but today it is already made from beef and buffalo meat. The main condition is that you need to prepare dry sausage from only one type of meat - no need to mix.
How to cook sujuk.
Buy 1 kilogram of meat without films and tendons. Cut it into large pieces, the weight of which should be 150 grams. Sprinkle the pieces with salt - take 25 grams.
Place the salted meat in a basin and place it in a fairly cold room (4 degrees) for initial ripening and drainage of meat juice.
After a day, blot the meat with a napkin and grind it in a meat grinder with a large grid.
Mix the resulting coarse minced meat with sugar (1 gram), saltpeter (1 gram), ground pepper (2.5 grams), cumin (2 grams).
Place the minced meat flavored with spices in the cool place again for another three-day ripening.
After 72 hours, mince the minced meat again, but now use a finer grill.
Stuff beef intestines with minced sausage, which you first wash, dry and cut into forty centimeter pieces. Tie the resulting sausages on both sides with threads and give them the shape of a horseshoe.
Hang the horseshoe-shaped sudzhuk in a cold, windy place and dry the sausage for 30 days. During this time, periodically remove the horseshoes to give them a flat shape. To do this, place the sausages between two cutting boards and press them down a little with your hands.
After the drying process is completed, place the dry-cured sausages between the boards for a day, and put pressure on top.
Homemade sudzhuk has an oval shape when cut, and it must be cut very thinly. This delicious homemade dry-cured product is good served with fortified red wine, which will highlight the unusual taste of the meat preparation.

Today, many people are afraid to buy store-bought sausage. There are many rumors about the conditions under which it is produced and what is in its composition. If you don’t eat sausage for these reasons or adhere to a healthy lifestyle that is popular today, but don’t want to give it up at all, then prepare yourself at home a type of sausage originally from the Middle East - sujuk.
What is sujuk
In the culinary environment, sujuk is a type of sausage, a national dish among Turkic and Middle Eastern peoples. The product stands out among the variety of products on the sausage market. Sujuk has a flat shape. Initially, sausage was made from horse meat, later they began to use other types of meat, add fat, spices and seasonings. There are several varieties of sudzhuk sausage - dry, hard, dried.
History of appearance
The sausage product gained its popularity during the Ottoman Empire and became widely known among such peoples as Arabs, Greeks, Armenians, Bulgarians, Serbs, Croats, Bosnians, and Macedonians. Each nation has its own official name for this dried sausage, for example, in the Caucasus: in Azerbaijan and Armenia - sudzhukh, in Europe: Turkey and Bulgaria - sudzhuk (sucuk), in the Balkans - suchug, in Asian countries: Kazakhstan - shuzhyk, shuzhuk or chuzhuk, Kyrgyzstan - chuchuk,
Literally, the name of the sausage product is translated as “filled,” meaning filling the intestines with meat. Sujuk in this casing was hung and dried to rid the meat of moisture and prevent the process of rotting. The method of drying was accidentally invented by nomadic warriors. In the conditions of the steppe, under the scorching sun, the meat quickly deteriorated, so they began to dry it first and take it with them on the road in a canvas bag.
An improved method of preparing dried sausage has retained its popularity to this day. Dried meat has a special texture and taste. Often it is cut into thin slices, which does not allow this product to be eaten in large quantities. Dried sausage, with the correct cooking technology, can be stored for a long time under various conditions and not spoil.
What is sujuk made from?
The fillet pieces of meat are pre-salted, then mixed with fat and stuffed into the intestine with this mixture, then dried, cured, and smoked. In the Caucasus, horse meat is traditionally used. This sausage is cheaper in cost because any part of the carcass can be used for cooking. Other nations often use other types of meat.
For example, in Bulgaria there is an analogue of sudzhuk called “lukanka”, which is made from pork with spices and a small amount of water. The sausage is periodically squeezed during drying to make it flatter and tougher. Turkish people prepare this sausage product from lamb or beef, adding a set of spices such as garlic, cumin and pepper.
Composition and calorie content
Now sujuk can be easily purchased in many supermarkets. Modern sudzhuk sausage consists of horse or beef meat, animal fat, salt, spices, including garlic. Due to its high fat content, sausage is a high-calorie food product; its average energy value is 463 kilocalories per 100 grams.
Cooking technology
To prepare sudjuk you will need clean beef, lamb or pork intestines. They are tightly stuffed with minced meat and tied in knots at the ends. To make it easier to later give the sujuk a flat shape, add a little water to the minced meat, which will evaporate during drying and form voids. The ripening stage is long; on average, meat matures for 10-15 days, depending on the variety. During this time, you regularly need to squeeze the sausage from different sides using pressure. The finished sausages are additionally hung for another 30-40 days.
How to make sujuk at home
The delicacy can be easily prepared in your kitchen. To create a classic sujuk you don’t need many ingredients. It is necessary to have the skill of working with intestines, otherwise difficulties may arise with stuffing the sausage. This is the most labor-intensive process in which accuracy and dexterity are important. Choose a sujuk recipe that suits your taste perfectly or create your own unique product based on basic recipes.

From the other end of the intestine, fill the kazy, after sprinkling it with pepper, add onion and garlic, and secure the end with a stick. Connect both ends and tie.
