Cotechino Modena or cotechino di Modena (Italian:[koteˈkiːnodiˈmɔːdena]; spelled cotecchino or coteghino in some major dialects, but not in Italian) is a sausage made from pork, fatback, and pork rind recognised as a product with a protected designation of origin (PDO), originating in the Italian city of Modena.[1][2]Zampone Modena is closely related and also obtained PDO status.
Cotechino dates back to around 1511 to Gavello in Mirandola, where, whilst besieged, the people had to find a way to preserve meat and use the less tender cuts, so they made cotechino.[3] Mirandola developed its own specialty enveloped in a hollowed out pig's trotter, named zampone.[4]
By the 18th century it had become more popular than the yellowish sausage that had been around at the time, and in the 19th century entered mass production in and around the area.
Cotechino is often served with lentils alongside mashed potatoes or polenta, especially around New Year.[5]
