Elaboració

Pas a pas

  1. 1

    Chill all meat, fat, and equipment (grinder parts, mixing bowl) thoroughly in the freezer for at least 30 minutes before starting.

    Uns 30 min

    Nota de cuina: Keeping everything very cold prevents fat from smearing and ensures a better texture.

  2. 2

    Grind the veal through the fine die of a meat grinder into a chilled mixing bowl.

    Uns 5 min

  3. 3

    Grind the pork fatback through the fine die of a meat grinder into the same bowl as the veal.

    Uns 5 min

  4. 4

    Add the salt, white pepper, ground mace, ground ginger, ground cardamom, minced onion, chopped parsley, and lemon zest to the ground meat and fat.

    Uns 2 min

  5. 5

    Begin mixing the ingredients by hand or with a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, gradually adding the ice water until the mixture becomes cohesive and sticky.

    Uns 10 min

    Nota de cuina: Do not overmix, as this can make the sausage tough.

  6. 6

    Attach the sausage stuffer attachment to your meat grinder or stand mixer.

    Uns 1 min

  7. 7

    Carefully feed the soaked pork casing onto the stuffing horn, leaving a small tail at the end.

    Uns 2 min

    Nota de cuina: Ensure the casing is free of tangles and air pockets.

  8. 8

    Begin stuffing the sausage mixture into the casing, being careful not to overfill or leave large air pockets.

    Uns 15 min

    Nota de cuina: Use a pin to prick any visible air bubbles in the stuffed sausage.

  9. 9

    Once the casing is filled, twist the sausage into individual links, approximately 10-12 cm long.

    Uns 5 min

    Nota de cuina: Alternate the direction of twisting for each link to secure them.

  10. 10

    Bring a large pot of water to a gentle simmer (around 80-85°C / 175-185°F). The water should not boil.

    Uns 5 min

    Nota de cuina: A food thermometer is useful here to maintain the correct temperature.

  11. 11

    Carefully add the Weisswurst links to the simmering water.

    Uns 1 min

    Nota de cuina: Do not overcrowd the pot; cook in batches if necessary.

  12. 12

    Poach the sausages for 10-15 minutes, or until they are firm to the touch and cooked through.

    Uns 15 min

    Nota de cuina: Weisswurst should never be boiled, as this can cause the casings to burst.

  13. 13

    Remove the cooked Weisswurst from the water and serve immediately.

    Nota de cuina: Traditionally served with sweet mustard and a pretzel.
