Stadtwurst

Stadtwurst is a fine grind German sausage, but there are also coarse grind Stadtwurst sausages, for example Nürnberger Stadtwurst or Schlesische. Although Stadtwurst translates into City Sausage this reasoning cannot be universally applied as there are different meat and spice combinations in different regions of the country. The common denominator is the diameter of the sausage, its ring shape, materials: pork or pork and beef and the heating process. The sausage is usually hot smoked and boiled in water.

The Practical Guide to Making Salami

The Practical Guide to Making Salami is a companion book to The Art of Making Fermented Sausages, published in 2008. Since then, more information has become available; safety standards have been updated and tightened, new cultures have appeared, and getting supplies and newer equipment online has become more accessible. The most relevant theory has been transferred from The Art of Making Fermented Sausages. Still, The Practical Guide to Making Salami includes plenty of new materials such as fermented spreadable sausages, acidified sausages, or combining acidulants with natural fermentation. The recipes section has been expanded and includes 264 selected recipes from different countries so the reader can immediately produce sausages.
