Kaszanka is a traditional blood sausage in Central and Eastern European cuisine. It is made of a mixture of pig's blood, pork offal (commonly liver), and buckwheat (kasha) or barley stuffed in a pig intestine. It is usually flavored with onion, black pepper, and marjoram.
The dish likely originates in Germany.[1]
Kaszanka may be eaten cold, but traditionally it is either grilled or fried with onions and then served with potato and sauerkraut.
