Potatis Korv (Swedish Christmas Sausage)

[Hoser]

It's worth a try if you've never had them Alex....if there are any complaints it is usually a matter of texture. The potato and onion soften the texture of the sausage a bit...it still eats well, just feels a bit different on the palate.

I'm just happy you're enjoying it Jim. I'm originally from the midwest (Michigan) and we always had this on Christmas as well. Absolutely can not get it out here in New England, but I'm satisfied with this recipe ...it made about 4 1/2 good sized rings, which is plenty enough for us.

Bumping this just because tis the season ....time to start prepping for Christmas.

[Sam3]

Oh, this is nice! Thanks for the bump!

Having Christmas dinner with Mom this year, she asked me what I was bringing. I think I found it now!

Awesome post Hoser, thanks again!

As a side note...this is the first time I turned the hog casing inside out..using the two-fingers and running water method...worked like a charm! Just make sure you put the plug in the kitchen sink, or you'll be digging them out of the disposal.

LOL...I tuck a stainless "brillo" pad in the drain when I do this. Allows water flow but stops the casings. Also... don't work with casings much longer than twice yer arm's length...without a stool anyway

Nice sausage... I would like to try that stuff.

Thanks for resurrecting another one of your great posts...

Looks good. What is the point of turning the casings?
