Instructions

1

Emulsifying

20 minutes

Mince the lean pork cold through a fine plate (3 mm). Emulsify finely in a bowl cutter, gradually adding ice water. Work in curing salt and spices. Add the pork belly and continue cutting. The sausage mixture temperature must not exceed 12 °C.

2

Stuffing

15 minutes

Fill the mixture into artificial casing (60-80 mm) or beef rounds without air bubbles and tie the ends tightly. Allow the sausages to rest in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.

3

Scalding

45-60 minutes

Scald the sausages in stages: 10 minutes at 55 °C, then 10 minutes at 65 °C, then finish at 75 °C until a core temperature of 72 °C is reached. Shock with ice water and air-dry for 1 hour.

4

Cold smoking

2-3 hours

Smoke the dried sausages at 60-75 °C with beech wood dust or chips until an even golden-yellow to light-brown color develops. Allow the sausage to cool completely before slicing.

Pro Tip

The sausage mixture must stay below 12 °C during the emulsification process – ice water and pre-chilled bowls are essential. A meat thermometer is indispensable during scalding to achieve an exact core temperature of 72 °C.
