HOME-MADE COTECHINO ITALIAN SUSAGE . Cotechino. It is similar to a big sausage (with different spices), but what really makes it different is the fact that it also contains pork rind in the meat mixture. Cotechino takes about 10 minutes to make (yes!) and 2 to 3 hours to cook… you want the rind to really become soft, so that when you eat it, it melts in your mouth.
