A few recipes to help get things started.
« on: December 24, 2008, 03:42:04 am »
Fresh Garlic Sausage


5 lb      Pork
1 Cup   Wine, White, Dry
5 tsp    Salt
2 Tbs    Garlic, Fresh minced (Increase or Decrease as desired!)
2 tsp    Sugar
2 tsp    Onion Powder
1 ½ tsp  Pepper, Black
¾ tsp     Coriander, ground
¾ tsp     Nutmeg, ground
32mm   Hog casings

1.   Cut the meat into 2 inch pieces and partially freeze.
2.   Grind pork with 3/8” (10mm) holes.
3.   Combine the meat with the salt, and the remaining ingredients.
4.   Stuff the casing loosely; DO NOT overfill the casings.
5.   Twist the sausage casing into 5-6” long sausages.
6.   Puncture any visible air bubbles with a sharp needle.
7.   Allow to air dry at room temperature for several hours.
8.   Refridgerate for up to 4 days or vacuum pack and freeze.



BIERSHINKEN

Take 2 1/2 lbs lean pork butt ( I usually use tenderloin but not necessary) and cube it into 3/4 inch cubes. Toss with tender quick and put in fridge a couple days.
 
Take 1 1/4 lb pork butt cubed and season it like bologna and emulsify with some ice water in a food processor til it is a paste. Add 2 tsp nonfat dry milk and blend in the processor--it will get stiff. Mix the emulsified meat with the cubed meat and stuff into 2 1/2 -3 inch fibrous casings (Summer Sausage size). I just spoon it in and keep packing it down in the casing.

Seasoning for emulsified meat:
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ginger
1 tsp mace
1/2 tsp coriander
1/4 tsp cure #1

 
Smoke at 170 til 152 internal.

Then give bath in Ice water to stop the cooking and cool down to 100. Then refrigerate.



Chicken Sausage

5lb chicken thighs
2 TBL salt
1 TBL nutmeg
1 tsp mace
1 tsp ginger
1 tsp onion powder
1 cup apple--1/8 in dice
1/2 cup white wine.

Grind the chix fine. Mix in apple and wine. Stuff into Hog casings. Don't overcook.

1 onion chopped
3 cloves garlic
1 tbl wt pepper
3 roasted red peppers
10 sundried tomatoes

When you do what I do and rationalize the purchases as household needs, it's real easy to go and buy the stuff  :D

For cooking and food preparation reference room temperature is generally referred to as 68°F. If your temperature is higher, and your sauasage has a cure your are safe to leave it out for that period of time.

Thanks for the recipes! I have way too many sun dried tomatoes in storage. The dehydrator was in high gear this season. The chicken sausage recipe is perfect for them!
