pork essentials: british sausages
I love things like Bangers & Mash, or Toad in a Hole; however, it is difficult to get “proper” British sausages. I got this spice recipe from a fellow chef in London last year. She claimed that that it is the standard recipe used for making British beef sausages, or “bangers.” I switched the beef out for pork, and made them into patties. My holiday houseguests love them, and always ask if I will be serving them for breakfast. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

Step 10Chef’s Note: This will give the mixture time to absorb the chicken stock.
-
Step 11If you have a casing stuffer, then use this mixture to make your own sausages. If you do not have a casing stuffer (I thought everyone had one of these), then form them into patties.
