What is the Difference Between Polish Sausage and Kielbasa?
Did you know that Kielbasa is the Polish word for sausage? Typically kielbasa has a distinctive garlic taste along with flavors like smoke, cloves, pimentos, and marjoram. Made from pork or a combination of pork and beef, it is highly flavorful on its own and tastes even better when mixed with a variety of dishes.
