Does anyone make their own sausages?

Do you stick to a recipe, and what casings do you use?

TIA.x

I have!

You can Google 'sausage maker' and get a lot of sites like http://www.sausage-maker.co.uk

I have used a kit and purchased the artificial skins from the kit supplier and also used natural casing from the local butcher. Prefer the latter. Generally have stuck pretty much to recipes as I never really got well enough into to experiment. Some of the continental recipes are excellent. Main thing was that you control the quality of the ingredients going in and could adjust seasoning to suit. You have made me think about resurrecting the kit from the boxes left over from the last move!

Thanks alan. Do you manage to get the skins onto the nozzle okay? Maybe we have just been unlucky, but the last couple of times we've tried, the skins have kept splitting (sheep skins).

We've soaked them overnight, prior to use. My OH thinks we should try soaking them for longer.
