Pork meat is still very affordable. Take advantage of this and buy a few pounds to make sausages for your little ones and the whole family. Delicious, economical, and ensures food safety.
Sausages are a favorite snack not only for kids but also for adults. Pork sausages have a sweet and savory taste, a firm outer skin, and when grilled, they smell amazing... However, recently, sausages in the market have faced many issues regarding food safety.
Therefore, today PasGo - the first restaurant reservation solution with discounts in Vietnam - will guide you on how to make sausages at home. It's simple, delicious, hygienic, and incredibly cheap.
Ingredients for Homemade Pork Sausages:
- Finely Ground Pork Meat: 2kg (choose parts with both lean meat and fat)
- Pork Casings: 500g
- White Wine: 50ml
- Sugar: 1 tablespoon
- Black Pepper: 3 teaspoons
- MSG (Monosodium Glutamate): 3 teaspoons
- Fish Sauce: 2 tablespoons
- Cornstarch or Flour: 4 tablespoons
- Lemons: 3 pieces
- Ice Water: 6 tablespoons
- Salt
- Some twine, a pump tool, piping bag
How to Make Pork Sausages:
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
- Rinse the pork casings thoroughly with coarse salt, ensuring salt is rubbed inside to clean. This step is crucial as it affects the flavor and shelf life of the sausages, so be sure to do it carefully.
- Squeeze the pork casings until they expel all the yellowish fluid. Then, using a large knife, scrape along the length of it until only a thin membrane remains.
- Squeeze the juice from the lemons, strain to remove the seeds.
Step 2: Steps to Make Pork Sausages.
- Pour the meat into a large bowl along with the ingredients: fish sauce, black pepper, lemon juice, water, cornstarch, sugar, and wine (as specified in the quantities above). Then, wearing gloves, knead the meat thoroughly, occasionally lifting it and slamming it down into the bowl.
- Wrap the bowl tightly with food-grade plastic wrap and let the meat marinate for 20-30 minutes.
- Once the pork casings have formed thin membranes, use a pump to inflate them, then tie both ends tightly together (this will make it easier to stuff the meat). You can leave them out in the sun for a while to create a chewy and crispy sausage casing similar to those sold in stores.
- Next, cut one end of the pork casing, use a piping bag to stuff the meat inside, and begin pumping the meat into the casing, pumping slowly and gently pressing down to the bottom of the casing (when you feel the casing firm and solid, the amount of meat is sufficient). The length of a sausage is about 10cm or as desired, then tie tightly with a piece of twine. This way, we can separate each sausage.
- Repeat this process until all the meat is used up, then cut each sausage separately.
- Finally, prepare a steamer, place the sausages inside, and steam until cooked. During steaming, use a toothpick to poke about 5 holes in the sausages so they don't burst from the steam pressure.
- Steam for about 20 - 30 minutes, then remove the sausages and let them cool before serving.
Homemade sausages are delicious and hygienic, so you can let kids and everyone else enjoy them. Sausages can be eaten straight away, but they are even tastier when fried or grilled. You can also enjoy them as a snack or for breakfast with bread.
Note when making pork sausages:
- It's best to choose pork shoulder meat for making sausages as it will be tender and tastier. - You can also use the same method to make beef sausages, which are also delicious.
- How to choose fresh pork casings: They should be pinkish-white, bright, without any dark spots or unpleasant odor, evenly stretched, long, and not torn in many places. Avoid buying frozen organs.
Making pork sausages at home is really simple, isn't it? It's cheaper than buying from the market and the quality and taste are unquestionable, so you can enjoy them without worrying about your health. Wishing you success and a tasty meal!
