Any more word on your new assignment?

Yep, will be commuting from Chile to northern Peru for a few months...at least. Have to get a road job started.

Here is a sausage recipe my Dad found. It was the 3rd from last page in a 1-1/2" stack of recipes. With his failing vision - macular degeneration, lens implants, etc. it took from the day you asked until today to find it.

This is a time-consuming recipe--it should be started a day or even two days in advance--but the flavor of the homemade sausage, strongly dosed with Cognac, is worth the trouble.

SAUSAGE

1 1/4 pounds lean pork tenderloin, cut into cubes
10 ounces fresh pork fat, also cubed
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried sage
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 cup Cognac

Grind together pork and pork fat in meat grinder twice.
place in large bowl and add remaining ingredients. Mix well, cover and refrigerate overnite.

You owe my Dad big time!
