I inadvertently ordered flat collagen casings instead of synthetic. Had plans to make summer sausage. I think I had read the flat collagen can't be poached or otherwise heated. Anyone know if that is accurate or if I am able to use them to temps up to 180F/82C poaching or steaming?
Still looking and on Len's site was where I first saw not to use them for steaming or poaching (on his main page). However for his beef summer sausage which does get cooked at temps to 180F/82C he does state to stuff into collagen casings.....
