For a milder flavor, reduce the amount of red pepper flakes. Conversely, increase for a spicier kick. Consider using a meat grinder for a coarser texture. When cooking the sausage, ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) for food safety.

Jul 15, 2024The refrigeration time really makes a difference. Don't skip that step! The flavors are so much more pronounced after a day or two in the fridge.
