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

You should not put an aluminum container directly in the oven
If you put an aluminum container, containing food to be cooked or reheated, in your oven directly on the shelf, the shiny base will reflect a large part of the oven heat (like a mirror). This means that the food will take much longer to cook or heat through than usual.February 21th 2011487 K 92.5 1 min.
