Braughing -
Extra Pork These "Extra Porks" use a slight change to the award winning Braughing Original sausage recipe by the addition of an extra 10% pork to increase the meatiness. The increase to 75% meat creates a real tasty chew and the flavour is most agreeable...
Years ago a friend had said that he used to regularly call in to Whites of Braughing for his sausages, and also he took orders from his neighbours for their sausage requirements too, often buying perhaps quite a quantity!
Sadly White's
shop in Braughing is no more
(photo below). The shop
finally closed January 2015,
however all is not
lost...the Braughing recipe
and the "Braughing Sausage"
are still available. Local
retailers are determined to
keep the famous sausage
alive and we bought ours
from Pearce's Farm Shop in
Buntingford, nearby on the
A10.
Musks of
Newmarket and their mutual
company The Braughing
Sausage Company Limited are
now the title owners and
producers.
Now it appears we bought
these a while since and they
may have languished in the
depths of the polar wastes
of our big freezer for far
longer than we'd like (and
what is recomended to be
honest) but
hey, it looks like they
thawed OK, and I'm not
wasting them, so in the pan
they went...
Cooked up the
NATURAL skins
browned lovely, the sausage was
moist yet firm and the aroma from
the pan was something else. A medium
bite and a most satisfying lingering
but mild spice taste on the palette.
OK they are not gluten
free as they do contain
wheat rusk but the qualityof
the making is very evident.
No splits or bursts from the
skins, and very little
obvious extra oil found in
the pan after cooking.
Minimal shrinkage and weight
loss too.
These sausages are very good and there would be no hesitation on our part to buy again. An excellent everyday and somewhat versatile sausage.
