It's cut long and coiled rather than twisted into links, so market grillers just uncoil one giant loop straight onto the flames.

Toulouse sausage is a coarsely chopped, minimally seasoned pork sausage sold as one long, uncased coil rather than linked patties. Market and fair vendors grill it whole and slice off hot segments to tuck into bread with mustard.

Why it's made this way: Its simplicity — just pork, salt, and pepper — reflects Toulouse's role as a livestock market town, where good meat mattered more than heavy spicing.
