PINOY LONGGANISA PROCEDURE

• In a big mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except the sausage casings. Mix well and let stand for an hour.

• Tie one end of the sausage casing and slowly fill the casing with the ground pork mixture until the end of the casing, then tie the end.

• Tie the middle of the sausage casing in intervals of about 3 inches.

• Keep refrigerated for 2 to 3 days.

• To cook, boil longganisa in 1/2 cup of water on a pan or wok. Water will soon evaporate then oil will ooze from the longganisa. Fry it on its own oil or add a few tablespoons of cooking oil and continue to cook for 5 to 10 minutes or until the sausage casings turn brownish
