Can you give me your wine recipes with your sausage ones? I knew a man that hung his sausages in the cellar and would cut off the mold and then cut us some fresh sausages.

Hi guys, I'm from melbourne aust. I found your recipes easy to follow,especially a second generation greek cypriot

[@coreypaul9806]

I was a chef for 15 years. And all I want to say is that your wife has more knowledge than most of the people I’ve hired. Her little nuances and tips for the casings were by far the greatest part of this video. She taught me things that my mentors, teachers, coworkers, and friends didn’t know about. I mean the way she flipped the casing inside out with the weight of the water, the laying order of the casings in the bowl, the methodology of the separation based on the packaging….experience is worth so much more than education. You’ve added some awesome tips to my arsenal, thank you

[@CookingwiththeCoias]

So happy to hear that you enjoyed this episode and thanks for such great feedback 👍👍👍

[@Sartre_Existentialist]

I really like the fact that you gave the spice ratio per pound of meat and not just the amount applicable to the amount you were making.

[@titus2080]

Just anyone who puts a sausage video out can make good sausages, BUT explaining it is a completely different talent. Coias is a pro at both. Joy to watch and very inspiring.

[@petrosperperiadis3169]

Hey mate! Great video, A tip I learnt from my dad who was a butcher for 50+ years, Always have your nozzle wet when threading the casing as this will ease the casing on, dip the tip of the casing in a little of the water before you thread for ease of threading. will make life a lot easier.

[@CookingwiththeCoias]

Glad you enjoyed this video and thanks for sharing your tips with us👍

[@mauricehamling9878]

I’ve been making sausage for approximately 70 years starting with when I was a small boy and we always run a slice of bread through the grinder when we’re done which takes out everything that’s in it and helps clean it up a little bit then you can do what was left over if you want to

[@KY-dx4rf]

Same memory here, I do remember using bread for the last spin. When I was a kid I was helping my mom using a grinder, it was one of my favorite tool in a kitchen 👌

[@mariag945]

Great idea 💡 I Will try it. Than you

[@pensadorrealista2825]

It's seems like every one learn charcuterie by their own. I've been looking for school or training center where I can learn charcuterie but unfortunately I never find. Do you know any please? Is it possible to learn on line and do very good product?

[@domg.1011]

@@pensadorrealista2825 NAIT culinary school has a cheese and charcuterie course, it also includes fermenting vegetables into pickles & other preservation methods. It is an actual college course though, & I wouldn't know if they would let you take that course without any prerequisites. Your best bet would be to try to find a workshop, even if it is not comprehensive. I've heard of day-camps for kids where they spend a week going to cooking camp or baking camp, but I haven't heard of that for charcuterie. I haven't heard of single-day or two-day workshops for food, I've only attended violin workshops. Internet research is always fun. A lot of the stuff here though, is recipe based not understanding based. Will Kotowicz is basically the leading meat preservation expert in alberta, so much so that the polytechnic approached him to design an entire course. In an interview he responded to "Current culinary obsession/exploration?" with 'I’m deeply into food microbiology, looking more into cheese making and how it’s so relative to what we are doing here.' I think his science-based approach is important in this field. Formulas, not recipes. Now, relating to the original comment, I've heard of people grinding ice. I think bread is a good idea (minus the gluten & potentially fermentable sugars) because it is not hard on the machine like ice.

I received a meat grinder for my 60th birthday (my husband knows me very well, lol), and made this recipe yesterday; my first sausage making, ever. WOW! I don't think I've ever had such delicious Italian sausage! I followed your recipe exactly and it came out perfectly. Made a wonderful pasta sauce, last night. Today, I'll try my hand at stuffing some casings. 🤞 Love your channel. Thank you!

Put that into different weighted vacuum seal bags, and now have 10 packages of sausage. I fried 2 small patties and had that for my brunch. Delicious. Thank you so very much for this excellent tasting sausage. I’m going to make it myself from now on. Thanks again. Diana C.

[@nickstoic2944]

Thanks to the lady for her demonstration on the casing.

[@steveperry9304]

Looks like a good recipe. Looking forward to trying it out. And just FYI for newbies or those that don’t know…. If you use stainless steel stuffer tubes instead of plastic, you won’t have the issue of the casing sticking to them. It makes for a lot easier prep, as well as cleanup. Definitely worth the small extra cost.

[@alberthall8148]

Always add the dry ingredients after rough chopping and before mincing and allow to stand for a hour at least and ideally overnight ideally in the fridge/cold room. [All PAPRIKA and CHILLI PEPPER is derived from dried CAPISCUM. One should NEVER mix weights [ie GRAMMES, LBS and CUPS it leads to confusion. A usual and recommended amount of salt for a non-preserved sausage is 15gms [1.5%] per kilo [25 or 2.5% gms for a DRIED SALAMI type sausage +of course nitrates or nitrites as per recipe ]

[@charlesfoleysr6610]

I have always air dried any sausage I make. I use my dehydrator so the skins don't feel tacky. This will help keep the sausages from splitting if they are to be grilled, or smoked. I make a lot of smoked sausage. I pre-freeze sausages, so they don't get mis-shapen when vac packed, then into the freezer. Your idea of running ground meat back through at the end of the grind so all the meat gets ground is great. And one I will be using. Thank you for making this video. Always good to see how people work together.

Thank you for these really well done videos. Making capicola and now, successfully, Italian sausage. My Dad was a meat cutter who supervised three stores (Pic-n-Pay and later Finest) in Cleveland for over 40 years.

Such a loss of knowledge that could have been handed down. Now I am learning from others like yourself. Thank you so much. Dominic Ciancibello.

Great job on this video. I searched Italian sausage recipes for several days and this was the best one I came across. Well explained and put together. I used this recipe to make 14lbs of elk sausage last night. I ground a total 14lbs useing a 3/1 elk trimmings to pork fat. My wife found the Italian pepper sause at some wrold market in town. I cooked some this morning and I would say the sausage came out prety good. I highly recommend sampling the red wine first. The recipe calls for 1cup/10lbs dry red. I used 1cup of cabernet for 14lbs and the wine really cuts through for a powerfull distinctive flavor. I would definitely use a different wine next time or just leave it out. Other than that, this recipe is a winner.

[@quixoticjedi942]

My family isn't Italian but we love Italian sausage and my mom spent lots of time experimenting to come up with a recipe somewhat similar by asking all of her Italian friends. First I've heard of that pepper sauce, I might have to try to find some and try it. One thing she did different was she'd season the cubed meat and refrigerate over night before grinding, that way you'd get that melding of flavors and the grinder would mix them for you. I still have the commercial grinder she bought back in the 70s, but I've never seen that spacer you used for stuffing, I'll have to look for one of those. Another thing she used to do was line a sheet pan with waxed paper and then fill it with the ground sausage and make shallow score marks in whatever sized patties she wanted. After you freeze them you can snap them off and bag them up and take out just what you need. Love your videos.

@@CookingwiththeCoias Came out great. Thanks again! Last night we had links par boiled (hardly any fat came out of them), then baked a little, then cooked in our homemade tomato sauce with macaroni. I have detested the "bite" of artificial casings for years. (That's what you get when you move away from the city....) Then this a.m. we had a "Sausage McMuffin" with a poached egg from our backyard chicken. Honestly, I darn near broke into an aria--and I don't sing or speak much Italian, only the cuss words--it was so good! I only wish my mother was still with us; I know she would have offered to do a guest appearance on your channel (if only I could have explained to her what KZbin is:-) Like your father, she had a hand grinder for sausage, too, although I was too young to remember anything but the spoils. fwiw, I do have one suggestion that I learned when we first purchased our meat grinder (for the dog!): grinding slightly frozen ("butcher frozen") meat seems a lot easier than just refrigerated meat. I don't recall whether you said that in the video, but next time I hope to try it, then allow the ground meat to warm up a bit before mixing the spices. Best to you and Laura.

[@annwilliams2075]

My mother made sausages for as long as I can remember using the manual mincer. After she died I had it and used it up until about 15 yrs ago. Now I use an electric one, not as large as yours but sufficient for my needs. Our sausages, for want of a better description, are British sausages. Which were made of pork with sage as the main flavouring. Now I try other flavours by adding apples or prunes or onions or chives ( lovely with a nice tart apple such as Bramleys mixed in) etc. In South Wales U.K. we had, and still do have, some excellent delis run by Jewish and Italian families so have bought our Italian sausages and salamis from them.

[@TheGilberto50]

Love what you are doing. Just a couple comments you probably know but I am not trying to be critical. May I suggest when the meat stops filling the casings you can use moist bread to force rest of meat into casing. I wonder if you only soak casing a few minutes because I found out that overnight or up to 2 days in fridge makes a big difference when it comes to placing casing over tube and making sure center of casing is centered over tube and if the casing is well soaked it doesn't usually bind .Also the ring color generally tells the size of casing. Where I come from the casings do not get packed quite so nice but I learned from you when I take them apart I can put the back together like you. Again you may already know these tips.

Thanks for such a well produced instructional video. I referenced it several times while making sausage, & the quick access to the timeline chapters made it wonderfully convenient. I have professional culinary experience, (30+ years in the kitchen), but had never made sausage before. I realized very quickly how unique a category this craft is. I've made variations of your recipe twice now, & I'd like to first of all say that it yields a tasty batch of delicious sausage. The first time I made it, I used some Italian Calabrian red peppers since I couldn't find the Turkish sweet ones locally & I didn't want to wait. The batch came out really nice. A few days later I ordered the Turkish sweet paste & made it again. This time I boosted the crushed red chilis & doubled the fennel. It came out great. That is the beauty of making it yourself, I made adjustments to fit my personal taste, & VIOLA' wonderful, yummy sausage with no additives or other BS. Thanks to you & your wife for a wonderful video. P.S. my lovely lady hails from northern B.C., (Smithers), so your accent made her homesick.

So glad you enjoyed this episode and very happy to hear you are enjoying making your own sausage!! And wow...Smithers BC...what a beautiful place!!

Please keep this video posted. We only make sausage a couple of times per year--not enough to have committed the process to memory (or at least to MY memory). Although I previously printed the ingredients, my wife and I take a "refresher course" by reviewing your video each time.

... sounds good and no worries, this episode will be here for you when you need it👍👍

I just tie a knot in the casing end. Also an old technique was to use a toothpick. Too difficult to explain but simple to do. I used my grinder to stuff with for about two years then caught a 5# vertical stuffer on sale at Scheels. Best thing I ever did to make a better product and simplify stuffing.

More professional than that; IMPOSSIBLE!👌

[@josephkosinski5647]

Tried you recipe except for the wine. Was delicious and a big family hit. Found a vendor to get the paste. Piccola's Gastronomia Italiana on line. May add garlic on my next batch as a personal preference. Thanks for the video. Easy to follow.

That's outstanding Joseph and so glad you found a good pepper paste :)

I made sausages for the very first time yesterday using your recipe. They turned out fantastic! I also appreciate your wife's section on handling the casings. I think it would be a good idea to spin that one section into its own video. I've seen many other sausage making videos where people talk about the frustration of handing the casings whereas your wife showed how to make the process easy!

so glad to hear you enjoyed this episode and my recipe...makes me very happy :) :) :)

You guys are just wonderful! Thank you for the recipe. Just got my stuffer attachment so will be trying this real soon!

that's outstanding...it will be a it of fun!!

[@rbagboyz]

nice video i have always wanted to make my own , now i know I can .... just a tip i might add . Years ago at cooking school we had a charcuterie class and our chefs would put bread through the grinder at the end and the reason was that the bread slices would pass though and when u see bread come through all the meat is out through the funnel and screw.... or as we called it the worm .... thanks so much

[@CookingwiththeCoias]

Thanks for sharing your tips with us 👍

[@royormonde3682]

Nice work, looks like some great sausage. I make it all the time and one thing I do with meat in the screw and funnel is, unscrew the funnel with casing still attached and push through manually with a wood dowel. Patties are a good option too though.....cheers.

I made sausage from a combination of other videos for the first time last week. It came good, but not good enough. I'm looking forward to trying out this recipe. I grew up in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn eating fantastic Italian sausage every Saturday night. After being away from NYC for about 45 years, I bought 10 lbs of sausage in Little Italy in the Bronx (Arthur Ave) and remembered how much better it was than anything I get in Virginia. I can't drive to NYC often enough, so I've got to perfect making it myself.

I'm happy to hear you are going to try my sausage recipe and I have a feeling you are going to love it 😊😊Let me know if you get a chance 👍👍

🙏Namaste You and your entire country seems to be a fairy tale. Thanks for the detailed procedure explained. After watching this I will be able to tell about it to my students of English class. Christian love from me and my students of a small Indian village.

Great to hear from you in India and I am very happy that you will be sharing the art of sausage making with your English Class Students :)

I am a recent subscriber and wanted to thank you for the excellent video and Italian Sausage recipe. I made this recipe yesterday, and even though I did not have the exact pepper paste ( I went to 6 markets in my area, could only find Asian pepper/garlic paste, Harrisa paste, and red chili paste). I used the red chili paste, it was mild, a little salty ( two ingredients in the paste, red chilies and salt), but aside from that, the sausage tasted fantastic and was very well received by my extended family. I will probably order the Muraca paste online, but for now, thank you very much for posting this video and your recipe.
