I just made this as bulk sausage but trimmed down the salt to 10g/kg, and heated the caraway and fennel seeds, before grinding them. This is the best italian sausage I have ever eaten. My wife even requested I make pasta with sausage meatballs for dinner tomorrow. This is staying in my recipe book! 👍
That's what I should have done, made this but slightly too salty. I typically add a teaspoon of salt per pound of meat, which is 6g per lb or about 14g per kg if making jerky. Flavor came out great, also added sage, thyme and rosemary at about 1g/kg and garlic at 2g/kg.
@@CL-im9lk I like to use powdered milk. It is cheap and widely available where I live, Midwest USA. Soy protein is not as widely available where I live, other than fitness protein powders.
I'm trying to make most of the sausages you put on RUclips so far I'm am impressed with your recipes and teaching style keep them coming maybe some subprimal breakdowns down the road thank you very much
Hello Duncan. I am new at making Italian sausage. I have made Chorizo for many years. Wife's family recipe. In the Italian Seasonings, I heard you say binder at 10g/kilo. What are you using for a binder?
Fantastic video Duncan! Well explained and easy to understand! Keep up the great informative videos. We deeply appreciate your efforts to teach professional sausage making techniques to beginners like myself.
Just made this last night. Recipe was spot on. I left out the caraway, simply because I don't like caraway and I added some black garlic powder and onion powder as well. Turned out exceptional. Thanks Duncan, great channel please don't stop posting.
I made your recipe without the Caraway since I didn't have any but it came out perfect patties and sausages were delicious exactly what I think about when eating Italian sausage thank for the video
Great video! Sweet Italian sausage was the one sausage my wife insisted I make. lol She uses it in spaghetti sauce and when she makes lasagna. So I make it 10lb at a time. I normally case about 1/2 the sausage and just vacuum pack the rest in 1lb packs uncased. This stuff is great cased and cooked on the grill.
Similar to the 'family recipe' brought over from southern Italy at the beginning of WW1. Your technique is fantastic! I also vacuum pack some of the sausage loose and use it for pizzas and Pasta Alla Norcino. Subscribed!
Hey Duncan!! Love your channel and recipe I want to try this one and it says binder. Can you direct me where to buy high heat dry milk in canada? Thanks
I've been stuck in the middle of Thailand for about 2 years and I would say the last 18 months I haven't been able to sleep at night because all my dreams consist of (not kidding) pizza with Italian sausage or spaghetti with Italian sausage and if I can't make this work I'm going back to America just to satisfy my craving for Italian sausage lol
Made this today. Did recipe with listed ratios minus caraway, didn’t have any🤷♂️. Added extra T of pepper flakes cuz I prefer a bit more heat. Delicious recipe. Oh, added bulb of roasted garlic because I could. Did a course grind. Enjoy your videos and use them as reference as I learn sausage making.
Duncan, great video, thanks for sharing. I have been trying to find pork in the 20%to 30% fat to make the sausage, although it is not easy to find it. Please advise what cut from supermarket can be bought. Many thanks.
Hello Duncan, I agree with your demonstration up to a point, I hope that this reply will not upset you , in Italy you can easily purchase sausages made by the local butchers and in order to sell them to old and new customers they must provide a product with great taste and competitive price( so sugar is definitely not used) the sweetness of the sausages comes from the quality of the meat and the quality of the spices( every region uses different ingredients according to local availability), also due to various circumstances( including food rationing of various wars and conflicts) families started the home production of this fantastic product, usually they purchased a piglet from the local farmer ( usually at January) and the farmer will keep it until late winter ( at least until the animal reached a minimum of 100kg) and then the family (at home ) had to "process" it( sorry about this euphemism ) black pudding was first in line and sausages were the last part of the "procedure"( still no sugar as it was still too expensive) and the seasonings was checked simply by cooking small samples , sometimes many times over . In the 70s I was very young and I still remember being a spectator during this " family event" but I m trying to make sausages still following family tradition and the results are " acceptable ", so I would suggest to watch out on " RUclips " for the little Italian nonnas that still make sausages in the old fashion way and good results could be achieved, sorry about the long story but I wish good luck ( and lots of love) to all of you guys and keep on making sausages🤗🤗🤗🤗
YES I'm going to make that sausage in The Philippines they eat a lot of pork and goat meat there (I'm in Australia coz of covid) but I will add frozen chicken stock instead of water to maximize flavor. The machinery is surprisingly cheap there but it's made by our Chinese cousins of stainless steel and is top quality.
Great video. I like to puree Calabrian chili's along with their brining liquid into a sauce and mix that in. Nice heat and much more flavorful than chili flakes. Question - my husband won't eat pork. I tried chicken thighs but really didn't like the results. Any suggestions for other meat(s) to try to capture the essence of an authentic pork version? Thanks!
I’m new to your channel, and find each video very informative. Thank you! I like the little bit of history of each sausage as well. I don’t use coriander or caraway in my version of italian sausage, and I’m not sure if it makes a difference, but I lightly toast the fennel first. I’m thinking about making your beef hotdogs next week…if I have the time.
Thanks for watching! Toasted Fennel or any seed can really add to the flavor of the sausage for sure. Good luck on the hot dogs! I hope you enjoy them.
Duncan, a ingredient addition for most sausage recipes, adds a tangy zing rather than a spice bite but it does have a bit of spice bite to it. HP Sauce, a thick "brown sauce" often used as a dip for roast beef or steak. put some on your plate and dip the meat on your fork into it. ( helps to know the flavour before adding to a recipe. ) After decades of actual cooking for a living I just measure by eye but I would stay down around 5 grams per 100 meat as the flavour being mixed in you won't need a lot.
I've made this recipe as is plenty of times and it's brilliant, but I want to cure n smoke these as an experiment. Reduce salt to 15grams and add cure number one at 3g per kg?
Hey David. They will all be fine you just want a fat% between 15-25% (no kidney fat) and meat that doesn't have too much connective tissue or glands (Shanks and Jowls). Shoulder, and Picnic will work awesome.
That will happen. To try to help you can let your sausages come up to room temperature before cooking and prick the sausage casings. Also if you pan is smoking hot that can burst them sometimes.
your videos are excellent and easy to follow. One question, why not just provide the amounts of ingredients as percentages vs. describing each ingredient in terms of grams/KG? Keep up the great work!
Hi Duncan. Liked your video but used it as a guide rather than a recipe. I used onion and garlic and chilli powders (all home made) fresh garlic, toasted fennel seed, fresh parsley and oregano. Fresh cracked (mortar and pestle) pepper and red wine for moisture. Came out extremely good but I think the meat was over ground so will have to drill out the holes in the face plate a bit. Thanks for sharing your expertise, very helpful.
Hey Glen, thanks for watching. That is awesome because that is what sausage making is all about, taking something and making it your own. That sounds delicious by the way, well done. Not sure what kind of grinder you have but I may consider keeping that fine plate for a fine textured sausage like bologna or hotdogs. Thanks again for watching Glen.
What is the composition of the binder? A supplier for the binder? You can also use a stand mixer with the dough hook to mix the meat. I wish I could find the recipe for an Italian sausage made by a now defunct company called Winchester Farms Meats that was located in Canal Winchester, Ohio just outside of Columbus. They had blend that I really liked. Have tasted many blends but nothing like what they had.
One of my all-time favorites is Italian sausage. I'm buying a meat grinder next month, killing a beef and a hog, and I can't wait to make this! I'll eventually buy a stuffer, but can I use the grinder (Meat Your Maker 1.5 hp) to stuff the casings? Thank you very much Duncan! Liked and subscribed! 🙋
Hello Duncan I am really new to sausage making I’ve been watching lots of videos mostly yours and my question is the addition of fat to meat. you say 20/80 is the ratio of fat to lean but other than the amount of fat that’s already in the meat how do you determine how much fat to add to meat
Hi Henry. Thanks for sharing so much of your dedicated work. I am trying most of your recipes at home. I have noted that in your Italian Sausage video you talked about 18 grams per kg pepper.😰😰😆😆
Hey Duncan. I've been making sausage a long time. I'm pretty old school Italian and just do it the way my father taught me when I was young. I'm curious... At 6:24 you mention your recipe includes "binder at 10g per kg". What is "binder"? I suppose I could Google it but I want to know I understand in the context of what you do... Also, I've never used sugar. No judging here. Recipes are as varied as there are people making sausage. I'm just curious to know if you use it for the flavour or for some quality.... such as a preservative? Like you I use no pink salt. Thanks for the great videos.
Thanks Joe. Yes you bet I go over in detail what a binder is in my "How to make a sausage recipe" video that would probably be best. Sugar is just used for flavor, sugar doesn't have any preservation qualities. Like pink salt aka sodium nitrite.
As always looks amazing, in the video you say 18g/kg on the Black pepper, I'm assuming the 2g/kg is the correct one and I don't want to die. I'll definitely give this recipe a try. mine is a little different. I don't have sugar or coriander, and I do have some sun-dried tomato chopped up in there which gives an interesting touch.
Thank you! O shoot lol ya 2g/kg of black pepper is the way to go. 18g/kg would ruin it. I have put sun-dried tomatoes in, in the past and they are awesome. I also have a sundried tomato-basil recipe. Let me know what you think!
Hey Duncan, growing up my grandfather used to buy Slovenian Sausage on special occasions. I believe it is Kranjska Klobasa. Can you show us how to make this?
@@duncanhenry Thank you for the reply. I have seen nearly every video so far. I find it relaxing and informative to watch your videos. Thank you and Merry Christmas.
Hello Duncan, I just made 14 pounds of sausage from the recipe you showed on your video. When I was mixing in the spices I noticed something didn't seem right. I didn't realize that you had a written recipe below the video until after I made the mixture. On the video you say to use 18 grams of black pepper per kilo of meat and thats what I did. The written recipe says 2 grams per kilo. I havent yet put the mixture into casings. Is there any way to save this? Thank you
O boy, yes that is supposed to be 18g of salt not black pepper. You may need to add some more pork if you have it available. Otherwise that is going to be quite peppery. If you add more pork don't forget to add the other seasonings (except pepper) to balance it out.
I thought the same thing but I would have to add way too much to cut the peppery taste. Just to let you know, I really like the way you explain everything in your videos and will continue to watch them. Of all the italian sausage videos I watched, I thought your method and recipe was the best, Thats why I used it. The one good thing about this is the fact that I bought the pork shoulder on sale for 77 cents a pound so not a major loss. Thank you for getting right back and I will be trying this recipe again with the correct measurements this time. Ill let you know how I make out the next time. :)
Love the recipe, fantastic Italian sausage went down well with Canadian Italian wife Lol. have you got a banger recipe, as a ex Brit I would love a video on that
Duncan, would you please consider making a rabbit sausage? I am having difficulty in getting the fat ratio correct as well as the binder correct. I just seem to get sausage that tastes fantastic, but to "Crumbley".
Pro Tip: If you don't like the texture of fennel seeds in your sausage, there is an option. Try Lucknow Fennel seeds instead. They are smaller, finer seeds than common fennel seeds. You can usually find them at an Indian Grocer.
You can use bread crumbs if you'd like. You can skip binders all together if you want. You can't really overmix unless you get your meat too warm and smear the fat.
Did this guy just say bratwurst is a precooked sausage? Wisconsin says otherwise. Fresh Sheboygan style brats from wisconsin are amazing. Even Johnsonville brats come raw in the package. Cmon dude
I just made this as bulk sausage but trimmed down the salt to 10g/kg, and heated the caraway and fennel seeds, before grinding them. This is the best italian sausage I have ever eaten.

Hey there Alfredo. Pork Butts are pretty close, also you can ask the meat cutters for some 80/20 or 70/30 pork trimmings.
First sausage made at home. I learned need a better scale and I think I like more spicy.. ty for your work.
Thanks Devouring. Happy to hear you made it and liked it. Yes defiantly play with it until you like it!

Thank you very much Shane glad you liked it!
What do you use for binder?
If using 20mls of wine do i cut back on 20mls of water ? Also is chicken broth the recommended type or beef or anytype of broth

Holy hell!!! made look soo easy😮
Your ground pork which cut do you prefer? Shoulder, picnic, brisket? My butcher will grind it down
Hey David. They will all be fine you just want a fat% between 15-25% (no kidney fat) and meat that doesn't have too much connective tissue or glands (Shanks and Jowls). Shoulder, and Picnic will work awesome.
Hi. what causes the the casing to shrink when cooking at both ends? meast burts outbof the ends? using natural hog casing. please help 🙏
That will happen. To try to help you can let your sausages come up to room temperature before cooking and prick the sausage casings.
Also if you pan is smoking hot that can burst them sometimes.
What is the binder used in these please?

Where do you get your soy protein, having trouble finding in Regina

I noticed you don't add Cure #1, can you explain why?
thanks Sir Duncan ill that soon.good luck to you vlog
Great video, you mentioned sugar in the video but not in the recipe. How much sugar do you use?
Thank you. I use 4g/kg for mild and 8g/kg for sweet.
I just made 2 kg of them and the family finished them off in two days. Needlessto say they loved them.
What size grinder plate was used on the pork?
You can finish on 3/16 or 3/8 if you want some texture.
As always looks amazing, in the video you say 18g/kg on the Black pepper, I'm assuming the 2g/kg is the correct one and I don't want to die.
I'll definitely give this recipe a try. mine is a little different.

Which is correct? Thanks
2 grams
Thanks for the prompt reply! You’re doing a great job!

Pro Tip: If you don't like the texture of fennel seeds in your sausage, there is an option. Try Lucknow Fennel seeds instead. They are smaller, finer seeds than common fennel seeds. You can usually find them at an Indian Grocer.
Have you ever made Andoullie sausages
Do you have a recipe on Spaghetti sauce if you do will you please share
I have a few beef livers in the freezer. Do you have a recipe for using them?
Beef Liver is sort of the strongest of the livers I don't usually use it often. I do have a liver sausage recipe but I usually use pork.
No garlic?
Do you put the raw sausage in your sauce to cook in the sauce?
Hi Joel. To be safe the best thing to do is to give the sausage a good sear on the grill or in a frying pan and let them finish in the sauce.
For a more authentic Italian flavor instead of using cayenne pepper add some Calabrian Chili powder or flakes. Gives it a nice sweet hot kick.
On your video you said pepper is 18g per kg, In your recipt it has 2g/kg. Could you clarify what it is please. Thanks
Yes regrettably I stumbled up in the video. It is supposed to be 2g/kg
Do you make a honey garlic sausage

What could we use for a binder without buying it? What do they use traditionally, bread crumbs?
Can you overmix it if you're using your hands?
You can use bread crumbs if you'd like. You can skip binders all together if you want.
You can't really overmix unless you get your meat too warm and smear the fat.
what you do after. cook/boil. smoke . dry . WHAT YOU DO... MOST IMPORTAND ...
Did this guy just say bratwurst is a precooked sausage? Wisconsin says otherwise. Fresh Sheboygan style brats from wisconsin are amazing. Even Johnsonville brats come raw in the package. Cmon dude
