The Collagen Casing has been specially designed with the home-user in mind
Suitable for hand linking, no mess, no soaking and use straight from the pack.
See above video for tutorial.
Method
- Remove collagen casing from the pack.
- No need to soak use straight from the pack.
- Place on the nozzle, narrow end first.
- Pull enough casing from the broad end to tie a knot.
- Use a little vegetable oil on your hands when filling your sausages. This will make them easier to handle and give your sausages a professional shine. (Optional)
- Fill casings with your mixture. As with all sausage casings, do not over-fill as your sausages will expand when cooking and burst if they are too full.
- Refrigerate overnight to allow your mixture to marinade.
- Keep your remaining skins dry and store in an airtight container in the cupboard. No need to refrigerated casings.
See below for our casings size chart, the nozzle size should be roughly half the mm of the casing diameter, this allows the sausage to be filled precisely & professionally without the casing splitting or bursting, we have also provided a rough estimate of how many sausages you will get from 1lb minced meat mixture.
