Homemade Sausage Making

N'duja is a spicy spreadable sausage made with pork. It is typically made with parts of the pig such as the shoulder, belly and jowl, as well as a mixture of spices. http://www.cucumbertown.com/homemade-nd ... ecipe-dish

Has anyone made it?

This is the first I've heard of it. It sounds good. That video doesn't showcase it very well, in my opinion, but if you google it, you find plenty more images and info and it seems enticing.

N'duja is an interesting sausage and I lke that spice combo in the recipe in the link. But 1kg of pork belly and 2kg of back fat? What would be the meat to fat ratio? 10/90?

I really like pate's and spreadable sausages. I know it is not a sausage, but rillettes made from pork belly, pigs head and trotters with a bit of duck is beyond doubt the greatest thing to spread on toast or fresh bread. Try it in a toasted wrap or inside a toasted pita bread pocket.

Back to the topic. Until a few days ago I had never heard of N'duja. I too liked the spice mix in this recipe, but as you commented redzed the meat to fat ratio is a bit out there. I wonder if the poster has got it the right way around. I looked at Len Poli's recipe. His mix does not excite me. In it he uses tripe. I am not sure if I can get hold of this. Will carry on searching on line.

Yes, I've made it following Scott's recipe and method at Sausage Debauchery.....

It was seeing his posting on facebook that got me interested. Thanks for the link to his blog.

I guess that would depend on how fatty the belly is, but it's so close to 100% that you might as well call it pork butter. It sounds eminently spreadable -- and delicious.
