Instructions
- Melt the fat gently in a pan and sauté the onion until soft and golden, about 8 minutes.
- In a large bowl, mix the blood with the oatmeal, molasses, salt, pepper and marjoram.
- Stir the onion and melted fat into the mixture, then fill the casing or skin, leaving some room.
- Tie both ends firmly and prick the sausage to release the air.
- Cook the sausage in water just simmering at 85 °C for 1 h 30, never letting it boil.
- Let it cool slightly, then slice and fry the slices in a pan until crisp before serving with the mashed rutabaga.
Variations and tips
Grilled version. Pass the slices under the grill or in a pan for a few minutes to crisp the surface.
