Artisan Sausage Making at Home

2nd Sunday of the month

Learn to make your own artisan sausages with Alex Chambers -
my husband, charcutier, qualified teacher and Leader of the educational food charity Slow Food Warwickshire.

The unique Squisito Artisan Sausage Making at Home workshop is designed for keen amateurs, butchers, chefs, coeliacs and as a practical introduction to sausage making and meat preservation at home. Squisito (that's squiz-eat-oh or exquisite in Italian) are qualified teachers as well as accredited farmers market food producers and BBC Good Food Show & Slow Food Award Winners 2008 and 2010. Ours is the voice of experience.

Unlike other courses Squisito workshops are practical and educational so you will be tasting, making and learning the functional principles of sausage making to gain a compass to work by so you can assess recipes or products you collect to pass your skills on to your friends and family. Courses start at 09:30 for 10:00am and finish at 4:30 to 5:00pm.

The day starts with an educational breakfast of sausages and homemade products. Students then learn to produce their own ingredients and recipes, what you need to know
about equipment followed by tutor demonstration and practical sausage making. You will learn to mix, stuff, and link sausages according to the Squisito method which is the basis for salami making so you will NOT be making a 'British Banger'!

Maximum course size is just 4 people so that students get personal attention and time to learn and practice their skills.
Students walk-the-talk and get to take home a share of the day's produce.

As you can see from the pages below Squisito provide detailed course notes with lots more recipes and links for reference and reinforcement. All Squisito recipes are gluten free and the workshop includes an introduction to food safety and HACCP for food handling. Squisito do not use artificial ingredients, manmade skins, chemicals or bought in mixes - we teach you to make and produce your own!

The workshop objective is to inspire the student to make sausages at home easily and safely with skill and artistry.
Artisan Sausage Making at Home is the foundation for Artisan Curing & Smoking at Home and our Advanced Salami Making Course in Tuscany with Sapori e Saperi. Our student's Squisito reviews speak for themselves.

For groups of 4 or more students Squisito can arrange to teach at your own home, village hall or suitable venue.

Squisito also design fully professional one-to-one tailored workshops with full HACCP and practical production advice in addition to functional skills and affective learning. We can arrange to teach you at your own premises or farm and organise a programme or apprenticeships for your staff.
