Italian Sausage (spicy)

By Snowy0wl

I was appalled to find out this costs roughly half the cost of supermarket prepackaged bulk hot Italian sausage. I use this in my Lasagna recipe. Said to be freezer safe but it never lasts that long.

Ingredients

• optionally left out:
• 3-4 lbs of lean pork (or regular if you want more cheaper and flavor)
• 1 tbs garlic salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1 tbs paprika
• 2 tbs fennel seed whole
• 1 tbs red pepper.
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1/2 ground anise, didn't have any on hand.

Preparation

Step 1

1. Combine ingredients and let sit overnight in fridge.
2. fry up as usual and drain grease before use.


Tips: If you are unsure of flavor profile fry up a small meatball and adjust the recipe to your own liking.
