Oddleys Cumberland sausage

[wallie]

I have a question regarding Oddley�s Cumberland sausage.
I use a program named Filemaker to store my cookery recipes and have now started using it for my sausages.
I base them all on total quantities of 100grams, then enter a multiplier to get whatever weight I want.
So using Oddley� recipes I have calculated for 100grams I would need:

For 80.79 % Meat Content

78.4 % Pork Shoulder = 63.33g
21.6 % Pork Belly =17.45g
Iced Water 10 % of meat = 8.079g
Breadcrumb 10% of meat = 8.079g
Phosphate 0.8 % of meat = 0.646g
Seasoning 2.9 % of meat =2.34g
Total weight = 99.26g

The seasoning for the above batch of 100grams would be:
Salt = 1.528g
Black Pepper = 0.152g
White Pepper = 0.152g
Nutmeg = 0.155g
Mace = 0.078g
Coriander = 0.155g
Cayenne = 0.02g
Dextrose = 0.173
Sage = 0.229g
Thyme = 0.127g
Parsley = 0.127g
Total 2.9

I would kike to know if Oddley thinks these quantities match up to his recipe

Thanks

Here you go wallie.

63.3791 % Pork Shoulder = 63.3791 g
17.4616 % Pork Belly =17.4616 g
8.0841 % Iced Water = 8.0841 g
8.0841 % Breadcrumb = 8.0841 g
0.6467 % Phosphate = 0.6467 g
2.3444 % Seasoning = 2.3444 g


Total % 100 - Total weight 100g

Thanks Oddley
On the ball as usual, you must have pretty accurate scales mine go to 1 decimal place so I have rounded the quantities off.
Thanks again.

Hi wallie, I thought you were just using it for calculation purposes. I always round it up too.
