Step by step recipe
Stage 1 - 40 min.
Cooking in water:
It's the more often used way, but unfortunately the less best one: a part of the sausage taste flavor with cooking water.Put the sausage in a large pan and cover with cold water, don't prick it because water would get inside and spoil the flavor, cook on medium heat, covered with a lid, for 40 minutes.
Note: Then you can use the cooking water, for cooking rice or pasta for example.
Stage 2
Cooking in oven:
Tastier because the sausage cooks in its own juices, which concentrates flavors.Wrap sausage in 2 layers of aluminum foil, put in the oven at 390°F (200°C), for approximately 40-45 minutes.
Stage 3
Cooking on potatoes:
It's what I call "lodge sausage", we cook it in a large pan on bed of a peeled and cut potatoes. You will find the detailed recipe on this page. A pure delight...Remarks
