- 2 Tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 Tablespoons vinegar
- 2 Tbs Shao xing wine
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ½ Tablespoon salt
- 2 Pounds coarsely ground pork
- 2 Head of garlic, peeled and minced
- 2 Teaspoons ground white pepper
- 2 Tbs paprika
- 2 Tbs crushed pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 Tsp red food dye (optional)
- Hog casing
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons oil
- In a bowl, combine soy sauce, vinegar, shao xing wine, sugar, and salt. Stir until sugar and salt are dissolved. In a large bowl, combine ground pork, pork fat, garlic, pepper, and paprika. Add the liquid mixture and mix gently until combined. Refrigerate for about 2 hours to allow flavors to meld and to firm up meat mixture.
- In a bowl, soak casings in warm water for about 30 minutes. Drain well. In the sink, run warm water through casings. Check for spots with leaks and cut these sections.
- On one end of the casing, insert the nozzle of a funnel. Scoop pork mixture into funnel and gently pack into casings, leaving about 5-inches on both ends. Do not over stuff casings. Tie off one end into a double knot. Alternatively, you can tie with fine kitchen twine.
- To make individual sausage links, pinch sausage at intervals of about 4 inches. Gently twist the sausage link at this "pinched" point in one complete rotation. Repeat this process all the way down the coil but alternating the direction of twisting (towards you and away from you) from one link to the next. Tie off the other end into a double knot or with kitchen twine. Place in a Ziploc bag and refrigerate overnight.
- When ready to cook, cut sausage into individual links.
- With a knife, prick each sausage once or twice. In a pan over medium heat, combine links and water. Bring to boil. Lower heat, cover and continue to cook until meat is cooked through and liquid is almost absorbed. Add oil and continue to cook, stirring regularly, until sausages are caramelized.
- Remove from pan and serve hot.
