[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 237104, member: 3373"] I like the summer sausage seasoning from Hi-Mountain but I do add to it. Instead plain water I add garlic water. Peel and roughly chop up a whole head of garlic. Add to 1 qt of water (most sausage recipes say to add the qt. of water anyway.) Bring to a boil to cook the garlic then blend until the garlic is finely chopped. I also add mustard seed (1 jar of the size about 1/4 cup) as well as about 4 good TBS of pepper. It has a good spice taste without being so spicy that the fussier eaters in the family complain. Hi-Mounain also has a Cracked Pepper (I think it's called), summer sausage seasoning that is pretty good. I do find making summer sausage pretty easy as mentioned above. Want it more spicy, add some spice. have also added jalapeños and like that but not everybody likes jalapeños and that doesn't add the tang you might be looking for. Did add some juneberries last winter to a small batch. More of a SS that you might use on a cracker as a snack instead of a sandwich. You have to add more of the berries than you might think as they do shrink up when the SS is cooked. Can't say the extra work was worth it but it was a conversation piece. Next time the juneberries will go in a pie. [/QUOTE]
