Ginger sausage recipe

Occasionally we consume meat, in this case sausage, made in a small butcher shop with guaranteed source meats.

The fatty pork meats pair well with ginger

Between teas and some flavored dishes, I finished the cultivated ginger, I think I will plant a few more next year.

Ginger is a plant with multiple virtues.

Already in ancient times, the ginger root was used both in cooking and in herbal medicine.

The Indians used it in purification rites, in China, it was used to treat colds and seasickness, it helped to solve tetanus and leprosy.

We consume it for its distinct pungent and unique aroma, it aids digestion and freshens breath.

Ginger is widely used to flavor bread and cookies in Nordic countries, typical gingerbread cookies and spiced bread. In oriental cuisine, it is associated with various preparations to purify breath and aid digestion.

Great in teas, chocolate, and meats…

It contrasts the fat and adds aroma and fragrance. In a few minutes, a delicious second course!
