I need you folk’s help… I lost my recipe for homemade Salami..
For years I had a recipe for making Salami from hamburger.
I recall that it was hamburger, whole pepper corns, mustard seeds, liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce and “coarse†salt.. And maybe something else,,, can’t remember, darn it !!
Most important is, I can’t remember the proper amounts of each … especially the coarse salt… I remember that it was critical to get the correct amount of salt or the salami would taste ugly..
The finished mixture was formed into 12†long “logs†roughly the diameter of a half dollar and then wrapped tightly in cheese cloth.
The logs were placed directly on the oven’s wire rack with a cookie sheet on the bottom rack to catch the drippings.. The oven is set at about -/+ 200 degrees and the oven door is propped open about two inches with a pot lid (or whatever), so the moisture could escape as the salami dried out.. Took about two or three hours.. I think..
BUT I’M NOT SURE …!!! I loved that salami with cheezit crackers and a cold beer..
Can anyone help me ??? Have any of you ever heard of this recipe ? If so would you mind sharing it ?
Thanks,
John
