thumb|Biroldo Biroldo is a very dark, brownish-red, soft-textured Tuscan blood sausage about 4 inches (10 cm) wide, with lighter-coloured chunks of meat and fat in it.

It was traditionally made from parts of the pig, offal such as the heart, lungs, and tongue, that wouldn't be used for other sausages. Because offal was used, the sausage would start being made as soon as the pig was slaughtered so that the taste of the offal would be at its freshest.
