Homemade Swedish Sausage
This homemade sausage is great because it contains no ingredients that we can't even pronounce and it has no MSG, nitrite or nitrate. There is nothing like good, natural food - I believe that's a lot better for our family, don't you think so too?
By the way, in Norway we would call it heimlaga svensk pølse.
My friend and former neighbor, Cindy, gave me this wonderful recipe. Of course, she is of Swedish descent. Want to give this recipe a try?
Ingredients:
2 lbs ground chuck
2 lb. fresh lean, gound pork, s.a. from pork shoulder
1-1/2 lb onions
5 lbs potato, scrubbed/peeled optional
3 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoons allspice
1 tablespoon white pepper (freshly ground is best)
synthetic or pork casing
Rinse salt from casings and untangle
Keep wet
Preparation:
Grind potatoes and onions in food grinder/processor
Drain off some liquid
Add meat, seasonings, mix well – use two large ladles
Stuff meat into casings, tie ends with string. Prick it with fork to prevent casings from bursting when hot. Simmer gently 1 hour in large kettle with water to cover or bake 1 hour at 350 °F.
To stuff:
Use a funnel with 1” wide opening for faster stuffing. A smaller funnel will work, but it it's slower and more aggravating. If you don't have a funnel you can use the center of tube cake pan. My very clever friend, Cindy, gave me this idea.
Make room in your freezer because this recipe makes a lot.
