Directions
Homemade Summer Sausage Aka Salami,This recipe is as old as the hills. I’ve made it for the last 50 years and it was old when I got it. I thought it would be a good addition, so that young cooks can see how easy it is to make a basic sausage. You can play with it, add more spice or whatever. I do suggest trying it as written first. Just as good as what you can buy, but you know what is in there. I make a double recipe and then freeze it. It is really easy and quick to whip this up and costs a lot less than store bought. Prep time does not include sitting in the fridge for 24 hours.,Just made this and was a bit skeptical but not only was it so easy it came out delicious…not a true summer sausage but it was great, my gf whos not a fan of summer sausage loved it. Made half to recipe and stuffed into casing and half cheddar jalapeno rolled in foil. Both were great. Only thing I did different was bske at 190 for 2 hrs.,Making these as Christmas gifts so thanks for helping a poor man make cool and cheap gifts. But the question – what is the shelf life? In fridge? In freezer? I assume they’re not room temp stable and need to live in the freezer?
