Hi Gulyás,

That recipe looks really tasty, I'm going to try it next time. The snags I rustled up on the weekend were spicy italian, with these ingredients:

2 kg boneless pork shoulder, diced
225 g pork back fat, diced
40 g kosher salt
32 g granulated sugar
16 g fennel seeds, toasted & ground
8 g coriander seeds, toasted & ground
24 g Hungarian paprika
2 g cayenne pepper
24 g fresh oregano leaves
24 g fresh basil leaves
12 g hot pepper flakes
6 g coarse ground black pepper
245 mL ice water

The usual preparation method. Plenty of flavors going on in there, but it's the toasted fennel & coriander seeds that really carry the sausage to a whole new level! The recipe is not original, it's one of Michael Ruhlman and Brian Polcyn's that I'be tweaked.

Nico.

This recipe of yours looks very good. Sometime I'll try it. A like to experiment.
As a matter of fact, when I do NOT know what I'm doing, I'm experimenting.....

But than again, when I was young, somebody told me, if I can help it, don't get old.

You know what, I could NOT help it.
