Foods from the Swiss canton of Jura

Jura is Switzerland's youngest canton.

Jura became part of the Swiss Confederation in 1979.

Delémont is the cantonal capital.

Here are 5 Swiss specialties from the Jura you should try. Magazine

number 1

The classic semi-hard cheese from the Jura that you form into rosettes with a Girolle. In the visitor center, you can see a prototype of this special tool, created in the 1980s.

number 4

Saucisse d'Ajoie

A smoked pork sausage seasoned with cumin. The process of smoking sausages in this region dates back centuries, but the name of this sausage comes from the 1920s.
