This is fermented sausage and we can buy it semi-air dried or air dried. It is really great. But it is not as good as it used to be just like our country hams aren't either. The dang government got involved and now the air dried sausages have to start with refrigeration which limits some of the microbes that added the great flavor. Our country hams were great when the green mold grew on them but now most folks sale fresh hams because they have to use more salt and keep them salted longer before hanging. In the old days you would get a country ham and the seller would stick an ice pick in the ham, pull it out and smell it. He'd either say that one took or that one didn't take. They were less salty and much better. These sausages are kind of the same way as they have a little more salt. But we still cook them the same way. fry em up on low heat and then add water to hydrate. I've had folks say it's the best breakfast sausage they have ever had.

Hey sse,

Here is a small article on this sausage. This is the brand I buy but as a kid I remember the good stuff at Edge Brothers in Snow Hill, NC. That was where I was born and my mothers side of the family still lives today. Edge Brothers is no longer there so I have to settle for the best I can find and this is it.

Spam American cheese scramble breakfast tacos. Yup home made blue corn tortillas.

i've gotta make pancakes again. I saw the one j_con posted and came up with something similar, probably should get some blueberries, too. it is amazing how readily available some fruits and vegetables are, as opposed to being seasonal. of course the seasonal local product is much better, but still the foreigner items come in handy sometimes.
