Sausage Mixture

Sausage Casings

Method

Preparation of Sausage Mixture

  1. 1

    Mixing Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, minced garlic, finely chopped lemongrass, finely chopped shallots, fish sauce, sugar, black pepper, salt, chopped coriander roots, and chili flakes (if using).

  2. 2

    Mixing Technique

    Using your hands, mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined. Be sure to knead the mixture for about 5 minutes to ensure proper texture.

  3. 3

    Resting the Mixture

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, allowing the flavors to meld.

Preparing Sausage Casings

  1. 4

    Soaking Casings

    Soak the natural hog casings in cold water for at least 30 minutes to soften.

  2. 5

    Rinsing Casings

    After soaking, rinse the casings thoroughly under cold running water to remove any salt and impurities.

Stuffing and Cooking the Sausages

  1. 6

    Preparing the Stuffing Process

    Fit a sausage stuffer with the rinsed hog casings and secure the end with a knot.

  2. 7

    Stuffing the Sausage

    Gently fill the casing with the sausage mixture, being careful not to overstuff. Leave some space at the end to tie off the casing.

  3. 8

    Tying the Sausage

    Once filled, twist the sausage at regular intervals to create links and tie off the ends with kitchen twine.

  4. 9

    Cooking the Sausages

    You can grill, pan-fry, or steam the sausages. Cook until they reach an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F), about 15-20 minutes depending on the method.
