Cabbage sausage from canton Vaud

Compared with the Germans who eat a staggering 30 kg of sausage per person each year, the Swiss are average sausage fans, at around 6 kg each. But the Swiss passion for sausage is clear - they have more than 400 different types. One of them is the "saucisse aux choux", or "saucisse vaudoise", which has cabbage in it. Watch it being prepared by one the few remaining sausage makers in the French part of Switzerland. (swissinfo, Raffaella Rossello)
