Hungarian Sausage🇭🇺…


Instructions:

  1. Prepare the meat: Cut pork into small chunks and grind it coarsely (use a meat grinder if possible).
  2. Season: Mix with garlic, both paprikas, caraway, black pepper, and salt until well combined. The mixture should be sticky.
  3. Stuff casings: Using a sausage stuffer, fill the casings, making links about 6–8 inches long. Don’t overpack to avoid splitting.
  4. Rest: Prick small holes with a needle to remove air bubbles. Let the sausages rest overnight in the fridge to allow flavors to meld.
  5. Cook or smoke:
    • For fresh kolbász → Grill, fry, or simmer until cooked through.
    • For smoked kolbász → Smoke at a low temperature until deep red and aromatic, then hang to dry if desired.

Serving:

  • Enjoy freshly grilled with bread, mustard, and pickles.
  • Slice smoked kolbász into soups, stews, or with sauerkraut and potatoes.

👉 Hungarians often serve Kolbász at family gatherings, with pálinka (fruit brandy) or beer on the side. 🍻

Would you like me to also give you a classic Hungarian potato & sausage skillet dish that uses kolbász?
