HOMEMADE SWEET ITALIAN SAUSAGE (MILD OR HOT)



Homemade Sweet Italian Sausage (Mild or Hot) image

This is a very versatile Italian sausage which can be used in many different ways. You can take it from mild to hot and it's very easy to use. There are also different options for type of meat to use, like ground chuck or ground turkey (do not use ground beef). If using ground turkey, you'll have to coat your skillet with a little olive or veggie oil before cooking as it has very little fat and will stick to skillet.

HOMEMADE ITALIAN SAUSAGE



Homemade Italian Sausage image

One of my earliest and most vivid food memories was when my uncle Bill would make his famous dried Italian sausage every Christmas Eve. They'd be fried after Midnight Mass and served on bread with roasted red peppers. This fresh version was inspired by those. If you can manage not to eat them right away, letting them dry for a day or two really deepens the flavor, and firms up the texture as well, in true Uncle Billy fashion.

Time P1DT9h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 pounds pork shoulder
4 cloves garlic
1 ounce kosher salt, divided
2 tablespoons whole fennel seeds, toasted
1 teaspoon anise seed
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
½ teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground mustard
¼ teaspoon ground allspice berries
1 tablespoon white sugar
2 tablespoons cold water
sausage casing, soaked in water until soft

Steps:

  • Cut pork shoulder into cubes. Place in a bowl and refrigerate while preparing the other ingredients.
  • Grind garlic with a pinch of salt in a mortar to make a paste. Add fennel, anise, and black pepper. Bruise spices lightly with a pestle to release the flavors. Add red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, oregano, marjoram, coriander, mustard, allspice, sugar, and a splash of water. Stir to combine.
  • Add the spice paste to the pork cubes. Mix thoroughly by hand. Add the remaining salt. Cover and refrigerate until flavors meld, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Process the cold pork through a meat grinder on the slowest speed.
  • Push a casing onto the stuffing tube of your meat grinder. Feed the sausage meat through the filling tray. Run the meat through the casing on the slowest speed until all the casing is used up. Tie casing at the end into a knot. Pinch and twist the meat to create links if desired.
  • Place sausage onto a wire rack set over a sheet pan. Refrigerate uncovered for 24 hours.
  • Preheat a charcoal grill for medium heat. Separate the links and grill them until browned, about 5 minutes per side.
