I'll show them who's got guts!

It's ages since I made any sausages. The first step, getting some casings, has been accomplished. I got these bits of pig gut online, at www.sausagemaking.org/

Easy ordering, and quick delivery. If you are not in the UK, you'll just have to Google for a nearby supplier.

There's enough here to make five batches, I think, so the four lots in the blue bags are currently frozen. They keep indefinitely when frozen...

I rewarded myself for this short step on the road to juicy sausages by having a nice, tasty, warm pastrami sandwich. The bread's made with spelt, not rye, but was still enjoyable.

I've put pork on the shopping list. Scary pictures, in due course...
