Our friend turned up on our doorstep nice and early the other morning with 45lb of boned lamb from one of her hoggets that she'd had slaughtered especially for the occasion. :-) Our mission ? To turn it into scrummy sausage.
Now we've had numerous sausage making threads in the past, so I wont seek to bore you with the knitty gritty of what went into them but I bet you've not seen action pictures like these. :roll: :roll: :roll:
First of all we cut the meat up into strips and ran it through the mincer. Our little sausage maker dealt with by far its biggest task to date admirably.
Then we added various herbs and not too secret mystery ingredients to the mix and put it through the sausage stuffer.
This is where the fun started. :roll: I'll let the pictures do the talking with just the slightest commentary from myself.
Kaz gives the instructions. " Listen carefully, I shall say Ziz only vonce"
Which end do you say I'm supposed to start at ? :shock:
You've got to be kidding me !
Eewk !
So its knit one pearl one you say ?
Don't talk now, I'm concentrating.
Do you know ? I think I've got the hang of this, its really quite easy
The morning went really quickly and we had a very humerous time, to say the least. It was great to create another happy sausage maker
Here's the finished article, we actually made four different flavoured sausage.
Our friend has promised to test drive the sausages and report back.
