Hi, from the Dominican Republic

[julio]

Hi everry one I am a pure novice in the art of sausage making and I stumble into the forum looking for safety tips on how to produce the best saausages with out killing my self or the ones I love, for me safety is always first...

Ijust send out for the following books after a few hour of research tell me what you think.

- Great sausage recepies and meat curring
- Charcuterie: The craft of salting, smoking and curring

my interest is mostly fresh sausages for now.

I will gladly apreciate anny advice and pointer you can trow my way, as you see in my heading i am outside the sate but most off the stuff it can be maill, except for the natural casing. (those ill get here)

Well i am prety sure it will be a lot of fun here.

Thanks.

Julio A.

There's lots of knowledge here and I'm certain one of the forums sausage people will be by shortly.
