sausage making on the cheap.
Posted: Mon Aug 08, 2005 10:30 pm
hi all, this is my first post so go easy on me
me and my friend have been passionate about sausages for a long time and we've decided it'd be a good idea to start making our own! however before we spend lots of money on a mincer and things we want to do it cheaply to get a feel for the venture we are getting ourselves into
i was just wondering if instead of using the recipe:
which i saw in the beginners guide, and you had to mince the pork yourself, if it was possible to buy pork or lamb mince and use that instead? also what seasoning would you recommend to start with? finally, is rusk easily available in supermarkets? i've never looked and i'm not entirely sure what it is, and why it is essential to the sausage mix.
thanks ,

i was just wondering if instead of using the recipe:
80% Pork
2.5% Seasoning
6.5% Rusk
11% Water
