Meanwhile, bring broth to a simmer, having pricked the skin of the sausage with a needle beforehand and have it about 20 minutes in the poaching broth then drain and remove the skin.

Spread the dough on a floured surface into a restangle barely larger than the saucisson. Brush dough with a little egg yolk;Place the sausage in the center of the dough, wrap it and drop it, edge down, in a buttered and floured loaf pan. Let rise 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 210 ° C( 420°F). Brush the dough with remaining egg yolk and bake.

Cook about 30 minutes. After that time, remove from oven, unmold and serve warm with a green salad.
