Step 1
Score the sausage skin in a crosshatch pattern with a sharp knife, cutting only through the casing.
Step 2
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 60 seconds.
Step 3
Place sausages in the pan and don't move them — let them char and develop a dark crust, 4–5 minutes.
Step 4
Turn sausages once and char the other side until the casing is dark and crackly, another 4–5 minutes.
Step 5
Remove from heat and rest 1 minute, then slice on a diagonal if desired.
Step 6
Serve with mustard, bread, and a pinch of black pepper on top.
