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.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh herbs, vegetables, and spices will give your sausage patties the best flavor. If you can, buy your ingredients from a local farmer's market or grocery store.
  • Don't overmix the meat: Overmixing the meat will make the sausage patties tough. Mix the meat just until it is combined.
  • Cook the sausage patties over medium heat: This will help to prevent the sausage from sticking to the pan and will also help to ensure that the sausage patties are cooked through.
  • Let the sausage patties rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the patties and will make them more tender.

Homemade Italian sausage patties are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own liking. With a little planning and effort, you can create a sausage patty that is both flavorful and satisfying.
