Homemade spiced sausage meat
A blend of sage, thyme, and paprika spices mixed into ground pork: a homemade sausage meat ready for any recipe.
In some countries, such as the United States, individual sausages are sold without casings. If you can’t find them, you can make your own using this spice blend. These homemade sausages resemble the individual sausages sold in the US and are suitable for many recipes.
