Directions
Mix the shoulder and the fat.
Add 8 tablespoons hot water to the crumbs.
Mix everything together (use your hands), seasoning well with pepper, and adding a generous pinch of both the spices.
Fry a spoonful of the sausage to test the seasoning.
Fill the sausage casings as usual.
Prick in a few places and allow to sit overnight before cooking.
These are very good baked in a buttered baking dish at 350℉ (180℃) F until browned. Turn after 20 minutes, and raise the heat if the sausages are cooking too slowly.
