Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground pork
  • 1/2 pound ground pork fat
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 head garlic, peeled and minced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil

Equipment

  • wax paper, cut into 4 x 4 sheets

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine ground pork, ground pork fat, sugar, garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, salt and pepper. Mix until well-distributed.

  • On an individual sheet of wax paper, spoon about 1 tablespoon of pork mixture and form into a log. Roll and wrap tightly.

  • Repeat until all the mixture is shaped and wrapped. Arrange sausages in a ziplock bag or airtight container and freeze.

  • To cook, remove wax paper. In a wide pan over medium heat, arrange skinless longganisa in a single layer and add enough water to cover sausages halfway.

  • Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook until most of the water is reduced and sausages are cooked through.
  • Add the oil and cook, turning as needed, until longganisa are lightly browned and caramelized.
  • Remove from pan and serve hot.

Notes

If you can’t find pork fat, use 2 pounds ground pork with good fat marbling. Do NOT use lean as the sausages will be tough and dry.
