Hungarian Salami

The Hungarian salami is a unique sausage which is smoked and has white mold. In the traditional process the use of starter cultures and sugars are not allowed. The sausage should not exhibit any acidity. The recipe below contains very little sugar, just to provide a margin of safety during the first stage of fermentation.
