Kabanos (plural: kabanosy) is a Polish long thin dry sausage made of pork. They are smoky in flavor and can be soft or very dry in texture depending on freshness. Typically they are quite long 60 centimetres (24 in) but very thin with a diameter of around 1 centimetre (0.39 in) and folded in two giving them a characteristic appearance. The name comes from kaban a term in Eastern Poland for a young male pig fattened with potatoes.
