What it is

Cypriot caul-wrapped sausages: seasoned minced pork (or lamb) with parsley and cinnamon, wrapped in lacy caul fat and grilled until the fat renders into the meat. Ingredients: minced pork, caul fat, parsley, onion, cinnamon, black pepper, salt, lemon; pita, tomatoes and tahini or yogurt to serve. Recipe: 1) Mix mince with onion, parsley, cinnamon and pepper. 2) Cut caul into squares; wrap small sausage shapes. 3) Rest to firm. 4) Grill slowly, turning, until the caul crisps and bastes the meat. Serve: in pita with tomato, onion and lemon, at meze and grill houses. Flavor: juicy, warm-spiced, herb-fresh. History: sheftalia's name may echo 'şeftali' (peach, for its shape) or the silk trade; it is the soul of the Cypriot souvla barbecue. See also: Halloumi, Kleftiko.
