SEASONING FOR GROUND PORK (ITALIAN-STYLE SAUSAGE)



Seasoning for Ground Pork (Italian-Style Sausage) image

This recipe is to be used in place of Italian sausages without the casings, the amount of spice blend is good for 2 pounds of ground pork, I most always add in an a small onion and 2 tablespoons fresh garlic to the pork mixture in place of the dried, you might want to adjust the seasonings to suit taste, and for spicy add in 1-2 teaspoons crushed chili flakes or to taste --- if desired you may cover and refrigerate the uncooked pork mixture overnight to blend the flavors even more!

Categories     Pork

Time 5m

Yield 2 pounds pork

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons dried parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder (you can use 2 tablespoons fresh garlic in place of the powder)
1/8 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes (can use more if desired)
3/4 teaspoon crushed anise seed (can use crushed dried fennel seeds)
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon minced dried onion
2 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Add this mix to 2 pounds ground pork and brown meat in a skillet for about 10-12 minutes or until the pork is well browned.
  • Use in recipes that require Italian sausages removed from casings.

Tips:

  • When grinding your own pork, use a variety of cuts to ensure the best flavor. A good mix is 80% lean meat and 20% fat.
  • If you don't have time to grind your own pork, you can purchase ground pork from the store. Just be sure to choose a good quality ground pork that is not too lean.
  • To make sure your sausage is well-seasoned, use a variety of spices and seasonings. The recipe provided in the article is a good starting point, but you can adjust it to your own taste.
  • Be sure to mix the sausage thoroughly so that the spices and seasonings are evenly distributed.
  • If you are making sausage links, use a sausage stuffer to fill the casings. If you don't have a sausage stuffer, you can also use a kitchen syringe.
  • Cook the sausage thoroughly before eating. This can be done by frying, grilling, or baking.

Conclusion:

Homemade country pork sausage is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover pork.
