Testimonials

22nd Apr 2011

Hi Alison,

Just wanted to write and say a huge thank you for initiating us in the mysteries of sausage making on Saturday. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and had a very successful barbeque in the afternoon where the stars of the show were unquestionably our home-filled sausages. We were unable to quite polish off all the sausages between us, so I’ve since also enjoyed an excellent toad in the hole and some very nice meatballs (my burgers didn’t quite survive intact).

If you managed to get any nice pictures then we’d love to see them.

Regards to Boris, and thanks again,

Francisca

Children's Sausage Making £15

Come and have the fun of making your own sausages!

You will weigh out the pork mince into portions which will give you 1kg of sausage meat when mixed with the flavouring, rusk and water. We are using a sausage machine which make most of the meat into sausages, with a little mince left over in the nozzle to make into a couple of pork burgers or sausage rolls for something completely different.


You chose your flavouring from the amazing list below, mix it with pre-measured amounts of rusk and water, add the mince and hey presto! your sausage meat is ready. You will be given a length of natural sausage skin to load onto the machine nozzle, put your sausage meat into the container and away you go making your very own sausages. When you have a long length of sausage you will be shown how to twist it into individual sausages. See how close you can get to making them look like the ones in a butcher’s window!

The sausage machine works well in pairs where one turns the handle to push the sausage meat through and the other makes the sausages. The pair then swaps around and the handle turner becomes the sausage maker.

It is great fun in a group so come along with brothers, sisters and friends!

You take the sausages home that you make and you can have them for tea, freeze them for later or give them as as really appreciated present.The cost of the course is £15, to include the sausages you make.

The next course dates are on the right hand side. Courses start at 10am and last about an hour.
