But I remembered I have made the Jacques Pepin aluminum foil roll-up pork sausage a couple of times, and it's awesome for a rank beginner (me). Yep. Gotta do more.<BR/><BR/>Sean: My vestigial sweet tooth needs a little less sugar than ice cream or creme brulee.

It's even local. :) <BR/><BR/>I am so tickled that you love the sausage, but we're not even playing the same sport as Fatted Calf, Cafe Rouge or the dozens of other local folks making much of pig parts -- they're making real charcuterie; we're just cranking up fresh sausage.<BR/><BR/>You'd flip if you saw how easy it was.
