Added fat

Hi again,

The main reason why I make sausages is the lack of fat that goes in them. I did some against all advice with next to no fat BUT I fell flat on my face as they compleatley dried out very quickly. Yes I should have listened! :oops:

I however have found away around the problem by rendering the rind and fat into lard and then drizzle about 3% onto the mince Pork. I found that it helped to bind the sausage and to keep the sausage moist.:idea:

Has any body else done this and if so are there any hidden problems that I have not thought about?

Canon Can (and will)

I do this with my saveloys but use pork brawn instead. The fat content of my savs is around 15% but you wouldn't think so to taste them.
