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.
