Chipolata are thin sausages most likely of French origin and primarily enjoyed by the British...but the word chipolata comes from the Italian word for "made with onions"...which the sausages are!
A chipolata is a type of fresh sausage, likely created in France. Sausages by that name appear in the 1903 edition of Escoffier's Le guide culinaire. Chipolatas are often prepared as a relatively thin and short sausage.
