Any of you guys make potato sausage. Last time my wife and I made some, all of it turned black. The stuff tasted fine, but looked like hell. We suffered some rude jokes about our black sausage. Any advise on how to keep the potatoes from turning black? I have heard soaking the potatoes in cold salt water helps.
Thanks in advance.

I think Swedes do that. I tried and got the same thing. I actually decided to never try it again.

Good potato sausage is too good for the masses; it needs to be reserved for the gods and me.

I use Friscoe seasonings. Stuff it into Beef rounds and add 3 lbs of chopped onion. You mix 60oz of frozen hashbrowns. It is super easy and very good

Lutefisk is for those cast into the outer darkness, there to wail and gnash their teeth.

Had a Swedish friend give us some potato sausage for Christmas Eve. That with some sweet pickled cabbage. Fantastic

My BIL a butcher in WI would fill the casings to about 18", cook immediately or coil on a flat sheet and freeze immediately before the potatoes could turn. We would take it straight from the freezer to a covered frying pan with some water and steam cook it until thawed and cooked through, pour off any remaining water and fry until the casing is nicely browned.
I suppose you could use beer and bay leaf like we do with brats also.

It seems the general consensus is that you need to freeze or cook imediately or it may turn.
Thanks

I had never heard of potato sausage so I went looking for a recipe. I found this information that might help. miles
"Peel potatoes and cover with water and just bring up to boiling point; drain and let cool. This will keep potatoes from turning dark in the sausage."
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.
