Description

Low-fat turkey kielbasa is a variety of sausage originating from Poland, adapted for those seeking a healthier option without sacrificing traditional flavor. This version is made primarily with lean turkey meat, which significantly reduces the fat content compared to classic kielbasa made with pork or beef.

Kielbasa is highly valued in Eastern European cuisine and has gained popularity in various recipes around the world, especially in stews, baked dishes, and barbecues. Its flavor is smoky and slightly spicy, making it ideal for adding a distinctive and tasty touch to soups, salads, and vegetable preparations.

Its notable properties include its high protein content and lower calorie contribution, due to the use of lean turkey, in addition to being an important source of B vitamins and minerals such as iron and zinc.

In Hispanic American countries, this sausage is also commonly known as longaniza de pavo, salchicha de pavo, or simply chorizo de pavo when presented in formats similar to traditional chorizo, although its seasoning and preparation may vary slightly depending on the region.
