A small, thin sausage or a cocktail sausage, often served as an appetizer or part of charcuterie.
From Italian 'cipollata,' derived from 'cipolla' meaning onion, originally referring to a sausage flavored or served with onions.
Chipolatas represent a delicious example of how Italian cooking traditions spread through European cuisine—the name comes from the onion flavoring ('cipolla') that originally made these sausages distinctive, but modern ones aren't always onion-forward.
