Summer Sausage. — Use any recipe you like best, but use cloih casings made from muslin, casings to have a diameter of three to four inches, and length to fit a baking pan. Casings are easily made with sewing machine. Smoke the finished sausage to your heart's content. After smoking let sausage dry sufficiently, which takes four or five weeks, de- pending on where hung to dry. The sausage should be fit for eating, which can readily be ascertained by cutting one through. When dry enough melt a quantity of paraffin — about one-half pound for a dozen sausages

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
