MAPLE BREAKFAST SAUSAGE

This classic recipe will come together in the time it takes to make a frittata or a stack of pancakes for brunch. You could also try frying the patties in a cast-iron pan alongside eggs in a hole. As the maple-and-sage-tinged fat renders out of the sausage, the bread will thirstily absorb it. You might even want to drizzle a tiny bit more syrup over the whole thing as you sit down to eat, so that each bite of sausage, bread and runny yolk has the perfect blend of savory and sweet. Be sure to use ground pork with enough fat or you'll end up with dry, flavorless hockey pucks. Twenty percent by weight is a good ratio, though 25 doesn't hurt. If the ground pork available to you is too lean, ask the butcher to replace two ounces or so of the lean meat with ground pork belly or bacon. For variations on the sausage, check out these recipes for Italian fennel sausage and Nem Nuong, Vietnamese sausage.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon dried sage
2 teaspoons Diamond Crystal kosher salt or 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 large pinch ground nutmeg
1 large pinch ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 pound ground pork (20 to 25 percent fat by weight)
1 tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon maple syrup
Extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  • Finely crumble the sage into a large bowl. Add salt, black pepper, nutmeg, coriander and cayenne to the sage, and stir to combine. Add pork and syrup to the spice mixture.
  • Using your hands, mix thoroughly for 1 full minute, until the pork begins to appear tacky and sticks to the palm of your hand.
  • Heat a cast-iron pan over medium heat. Use a heaping tablespoon of pork mixture to make a small, thin sausage patty. Add a teaspoon or so of olive oil to the pan. and cook the patty for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Taste, and if needed, add salt or any other seasonings to the uncooked sausage mixture, and mix to combine.
  • Divide and form the remaining sausage into 8 2 1/2-inch patties, placing them on the prepared baking sheet as you go. Cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to come together. (Patties can be made ahead and covered and refrigerated or frozen at this point until ready to use.)
  • To cook, wipe out cast-iron pan, and return it to medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil. When it shimmers, add patties in a single layer, leaving space between them. Cook 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until browned on the surface and just cooked through.
  • Drain sausages on paper towels. Serve hot.

MAPLE BREAKFAST SAUSAGE

Homemade breakfast sausage made with ground pork and seasonings. Great cooked in crumbles for biscuits and gravy, or in patties for breakfast sandwiches or eggs benedict. I like to premake a large batch and freeze the patties, then just take out a few the night before.

Tips:

  • Selecting high-quality andouille sausage is crucial for an authentic flavor experience. Look for a well-seasoned sausage with a deep red color and a firm texture.
  • Before cooking, ensure that the sausage is sliced to your desired thickness. If you prefer thicker slices, cut them into 1-inch rounds; for thinner slices, aim for 1/2-inch thickness.
  • Use a cast-iron skillet to cook the sausage. This will help create a crispy exterior while keeping the inside moist and flavorful.
  • Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook the sausage in batches if necessary to prevent steaming and ensure even cooking.
  • Be patient when cooking the sausage; it takes time to achieve the perfect crispy-on-the-outside, juicy-on-the-inside texture.
  • If you're using the cooked sausage for a breakfast sandwich, use a sturdy bread that can hold up to the savory flavors of the sausage and maple syrup.
  • For an extra special treat, serve the breakfast sausage with warm maple syrup and a side of fresh fruit.

Conclusion:

Incorporating maple andouille breakfast sausage into your morning routine is a delectable way to elevate your breakfast experience. The combination of sweet and savory flavors, along with the satisfying texture of the sausage, makes for a truly unforgettable meal. Whether you enjoy it on its own, as part of a breakfast sandwich, or as an ingredient in your favorite breakfast casserole, maple andouille breakfast sausage is sure to become a staple in your culinary repertoire.
