Sausages: Mouthwatering Recipes from Merguez to Mortadella Hardcover – 1 Oct. 2011

Book was a gift for someone who was very happy with it. Good looking book, plenty of quality pictures and very tasty looking recipes.

good book I would reccomend this as recipes are simple and straight forward and I am assured they taste good by the family

This is a good mixture of information about sausages and recipes using the different types. A good addition to our collection.

A really practical book on sausages and sausage making. Its practical advice is brilliant and the how to elements totally useful. Endless recipes, so much so that I have just bough 9lb of caul fat and frozen it in 1lb bags to give me plenty to play with. Realfaggots here I come. I find the format, the production values and the ease of explanation coupled with great recipes a winning formulae for me.

great little book

A month ago I went to England on what is beginning to look like a regular annual visit. While I was there last year I had a Cumberland sausage and asked for one during the month we spent at our favorite B & B last year and this year.. When I got home from the first trip, I looked for them everywhere. In the end a forward-thinking butcher at Whole Food told me that if I could get a recipe, he'd make them for me. When I was in London, I looked for a book of recipes for sausages that contained the Cumberland recipe. I went up and down Charing Cross Road to all of the book places and found this book, the only one that contained the recipe I was looking for. At 25 pounds (about $42) and I found that pricey. My husband said, "When we get home, we'll look for it on Amazon." Was I glad I did!! This book (described as used, but it certainly didn't look it) was less than $10. It has the recipe and I'll be taking it to the butcher. Perhaps other people will like it, too!!

I got this book because it has a recipe for merguez, which is a North African sausage from Morocco and Algeria. I've been after the recipe for merguez since I was a teenager. In France, Moroccans and Algerians have stands where they sell these spicy delightful sausages with French fries. I remember, every time we went to France and would take road trips to see relatives, every rest area would have stands where you could buy a plate of two merguez sausage with French fries. I would gobble them down. We had a close friend of the family who was friends with my two aunts who was a butcher, but he never gave me the recipe. Now I finally have it and can't wait to get out the old meat grinder and make my own merguez.

The people who love sausages will love this book,it has history,recipes,pictures,and all very complete. Sausages from all the world are here,including your favourites,don't miss this book!
