It may seem strange that sausage has existed on people’s tables since ancient times. Food of animal origin, including meat, was incredibly important in the human diet. Therefore, dishes from meat were created faster than dishes from plants, vegetables and fruits.
Mention of sausages was written by Homer in “The Odyssey”, as well as compiled comedy Epicharmus.
Now it is difficult to imagine store shelves without this meat product. However, we recommend that you prepare sausage yourself in the oven.

send the meat mixture to the refrigerator for 36-48 hours. You can also add salt to the meat mixture to taste.
While the meat mixture is cooling, it is worth stirring the mixture. Next, form 4 sausages 22 cm long on silicone parchment. Wrap each sausage in the parchment, fixing the bundles
