farmstyle boerewors spice

beef meat / fat 20.00kg

water 1.00kg

spice 1.00kg

tripolyphosphate 1.00kg

mix meat, pork and fat together,add farm style borewores spice accordingly to the amount of meat you are using.and add tripolyphosphate sodium.bread crumbs or soya.add ice water or cold water.this tripolyphosphate sodium is good for sausages the other name is called binder it makes the sausages meat stick together and makes the sausages soft.if you want to try this spice i have address its spice land. spland@mweb.co.za i have been using this spice and soduim its nice and have a strong smell for sausages its nice the smell is so lovely for the sausages.i dont think this spice will be expensive. if you want it to have nore smell add some garlic you dont have to worry about the mixes all the spices are mixed together.i tried the spice and my sausages come out nicely and they tasted nice so my kids they want me to keep making them sausages with the same spices.if any body know more receipes they can send them to me i want to learn more about the sausage making.

Mevis,

Typically, boerewors is made with added vinegar, not water.

Flippin' heck that's a lot of suet!!!

Gotta be worth a try though.

The Cotswold Cook Book (see earlier in this thread) arrived some while back and I've only now been able to refer to it. The recipes are rather 'nostalgic' and include many things I'd not heard of before. The anecdotal style for each month makes for interesting reading and the picture for October shows The Best 4x4xFar , so all in all it's a book well worth having.

I have just read your message; that's a very kind offer! If you are travelling by car, and only if it's really, truly convenient for you, I would like some sausages or good English cheese (note: you are not allowed to import cheese, fish or processed/fresh meats!!) and quality bottled beers, like 'Old Speckled Hen' or 'Fullers Golden Pride'.

You could contact me here at +49 2273 2469 or colin.basham@t-online.de or at work +49 221 144 2948 or colin.basham@globalre.com to discuss.

Why aren't you allowed to import meat/cheese? What ever happened to the common market?

If anybody decides to scan "The Cotswold Cookbook" put me down for a copy. I would like to have a read of it. Cheers!

It's a worthwhile project as it's out of print. Once it's in electonic format it'll never die.

It's not a question of protectionism or similar, the idea is to curb the spread of diseases like foot & mouth by ensuring that exports are tested before they go. The authorities cannot exercise such controls on individuals and simply ban it. I think honey is also on the list of banned imports.

@ Oddley
The paperback book is not all that expensive if you want one - www.elmfieldbooks.co.uk

Colin - can you point me to some sort of online text which describes/confirms this ban? I really don't believe it to be the case. What kind of diseases can cheese bring in?

aris
Take a look here:

http://www.defra.gov.uk/animalh/illegal ... atfood.htm

I don't know what, if any, diseases may be caused or transmitted by cheese, it's probably just that the authorities wish to combat illegal imports. I can assure you that I see the posters every week at the airport when I fly.

These regulations refer to the importation of produce from OUTSIDE the European Union.
As far as I'm aware there is complete freedom of movement of such goods WITHIN the EU as we are all subject to the same farming regulations and standards.
