Re: sausage help

I don't know I fry it until it is not pink and then I normally put it in sauce

Re: sausage help

Fry the sausage until its not pink then put it with your sauce, or you can cook the sausage in the sauce but that puts all the grease in your sauce. Either way...just make sure you coook until not pink inside!!

Re: sausage help

If I am making a meat sauce with sausage, I remove the sausage from the casings, crumble it and fry it until it's no longer pink. I then add it to my sauce to cook a little longer.

Re: sausage help

I've only ever cooked sausage in a pan with oil, until it is no longer pink. But I think boiling would be ok too, but the nice fattiness of the sausage might be lost.

Re: sausage help

I don't eat meat, but when I make them to put into sauce, I saute them with onions, garlic and spices in a pan until they are fully cooked (no longer pin) and then I throw them into the sauce..

Re: sausage help

i usually pan fry until they are browned and then add them to the sauce. then they cook fully in the sauce for a while.

Re: sausage help

this is how i've always cooked them:
fill about 1/4 in of water in a frying pan. put sausage in, cook until sausage is white.
empty water, fry sausage. with fork, poke holes in the sausage to let some juice out so they can cook in their juice.
after browned, place in pot of sauce to absorb flavor.

i know this is probably too late - sorry. i wasn't online all weekend.
