It turns out that sausage is one of the oldest products. They knew how to cook sausages already in ancient China, Greece, Rome and Babylon. The first sausage recipe was found in the territories of these countries. An almanac with sausage preparation methods dates back to 500 B.C.
Probably in those distant times sausage could be considered a natural product. Nowadays, many components in purchased sausage raise questions.
To save money on sausage products, we recommend preparing this product at home.
