[MR] A&S:Master Thomas' Sausage-Making class

[Isabel1443]

 From Master Thomas Longshanks, 
who
 will be teaching a sausage- making class hosted by the Canton of Rivers 
Point at the Colonial Heights Public Library
 on Sunday April 15, from 1 
to 5 p.m. with a prep session on the previous Saturday:

."We'll be making a period German Bratwurst.   I'll be 
picking up a couple of pork butts from Sam's or Costco on Saturday, and 
prepping them on Saturday.
 If anyone wants to go through the process, 
I'm happy to have them around, from picking out meat through grinding, 
and preparing casing. On Sunday, we'll 
season and stuff the ground meat,
 and talk about the process. There isn't going to be enough time to do 
the entire process without enough freezer space for the 
meat, otherwise.
 I'll bring the meat, spices, equipment, casing, and handouts.

	* 
I
 will appreciate having a headcount for Sunday. The handout will have a 
collection of period sausage recipes from England, France, Germany, 
Italy, and the Catalan/Italian Neopolitan cuisines.
	*  We'll be doing a 
bratwurst recipe from Sabina von Welserin's cookery manuscript.. If anyone wants to work with me on Saturday, doing prep, they need to be at my house
	*  on Saturday by 
11:30am. I'll be leaving to select the meat at noon, and then spend the 
afternoon prepping. I'd appreciate knowing in advance if anyone does 
want to help on Saturday."
 DO NOT miss this fun and educational opportunity. 
Let me know if you are planning to attend, so Master Thomas will have enough materials for all. 
OR if you have questions...
