👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Prepare the Meat:

  • Dice the pork and fat into small cubes or grind it coarsely.
  • Chill all ingredients before mixing to help with binding.

2. Season Well:

  • Combine meat with salt, both paprikas, garlic, pepper, and caraway if using.
  • Mix thoroughly until the mixture becomes sticky and uniform.

3. Stuff into Casings:

  • Fill natural hog casings using a sausage stuffer.
  • Twist into links about 20–25 cm long and tie off.

4. Dry and Smoke:

  • Let the sausages dry at room temperature (20–22°C / 68–72°F) for 1–2 days.
  • Cold-smoke for 6–10 hours over beech or oak wood, or until a deep red color develops.
  • Cure in a cool, dry place (12–15°C / 54–59°F) for 2–3 weeks until firm.

🍴 Serving:

  • Slice and serve with bread, cheese, pickles, or as part of a charcuterie board.
  • Also used in stews, bean dishes, or potato casseroles for added smoky depth.

Would you like a simplified version that doesn’t require curing or smoking?
