Casings' red lining

[Rafferty Taylor]

This is our first attempt at making sausages. We are making Chorizo, and are looking at the casings. The casings have a red plastic lining in them, and we are wondering what to do with it, and how to handle it?
Help please

It's OK. We figured it out. The red lining in the casing was there to facilitate slipping the casing onto the funnel. We got the job done. Do you know how long we're supposed to hang the sausages for. thanks for your speedy response

What recipe have you used? The lenght of time it takes to cure depends on the amount of salt amd if any nitrates were added.
