Title: Leftover sheep casings
Post by: Caribou on December 30, 2010, 11:29:14 AM
I made a batch of breakfast sausage using sheep casings and accidentally soaked twice as much as I needed to.
The ones I didn't use are still threaded onto a strip of flat plastic (Eastman brand, from Cabelas)
Can I re-salt them and put them back in the fridge or save them in some other way?
I'd hate to throw them out :(

I have taken hog casings that I had soaked but didn't need and just resalted them and put them back in the bag. I 'm sure that if they were salted when yo got them yu should be able to just re-salt them.

With all the sausage making going on I was doing a little reading up and ran across this very issue and like everybody is saying re-salting is the ticket!
