How to make sausage, cure meat , fish & poultry

Making sausage is like making a hamburger. Meat is ground, salt, pepper and required spices are added, then it is cooked until it is safe for consumption. If this prepared meat was stuffed into a casing it would become a sausage.

Some sausages like Chorizo, Chaurice, Boudin and others are served in two ways:

1. As a meat patty (hamburger shape) fried on a pan with eggs or other dishes and obviously they are not stuffed into casings.
2. Stuffed into casings thus becoming a sausage.

In both cases it is the same meat with the same ingredients and final flavor that is prepared in two different forms. American famous Breakfast Sausage is served at McDonalds (Sausage McMuffin) for breakfast and it looks like a hamburger though called a sausage. The same recipe when stuffed into tiny links becomes Breakfast Sausage and is served in hospitals for breakfast all over the USA. The point is that you have already made and eaten sausage many times before without even realizing it as it was never stuffed into the casing.
