Hi, purchased some Dextrose from this site and was wondering how much i use per kilo of pork for sausages? There isn't a guideline amount next to the product description when purchasing (like the other products)

Thanks

I've read 1-2 g per kg, and not to exceed 3 grams.

doesn't it depend on the purpose of the dextrose; ie the recipe?? if you are fermenting, then the amount of dextrose added is important. the more added, the more tang. if you are looking for some kind of sweetener, then i suppose it is a matter of taste.
