Sausages are the most popular cured meat and are still made at home although there are large cured meat producers throughout Greece.  Sausages vary from place to place and mainly differ in the percentage of smoked meat, or not. There are many varieties of fillings and combinations of spices and herbs and are often flavored with orange. The ‘soutzouki of Crete’ is sausage from pork meat combined with orange and oregano.
