Here is another one of Scott's lessons, an apple cider sausage. And it's British, so it does contain rusk.

Yes its a UK thing, its probably the reason im now making Sausage as im in USA and couldnt find any Sausage that tasted like my Homeland Sausage.Butterbean wrote:Will there be a test?
He does a good job teaching and really seems to have the passion. Is rusk used much elsewhere or is that a UK thing?
I have found a recipe or 2 and they all have Rusk.

What do you use for the rusk here? Do you make your own or do you buy it?Fusion5567 wrote:Yes its a UK thing, its probably the reason im now making Sausage as im in USA and couldnt find any Sausage that tasted like my Homeland Sausage.Butterbean wrote:Will there be a test?

Rusk Recipe
Ingredients

● Place in oven on the middle shelf and bake for 10 minutes at 450 °F (230 °C)

● Place back on tray with the opened faces upwards
● Return to oven
● Reduce the heat to 375 °F (190 °C) and bake for a further 10 minutes.
● Remove from oven and allow to cool on a wire rack.
● When cool using the large holes of a grater reduce to ?" (3 mm) particles.

I put the dried mixture into my food mixer with the metal blade and made it even finer, i believe this is called "pin rusk'
