So I made Scotch eggs again, because this time I'm going to get this fucking right

Eggs peeled correctly, better crust (used less), now I have been told I should finish them up in the oven. I have the oven set to around 375 F (or around 190 C for you Yurops), any advice? How long should I put them in for? I deep-fried them in lard fir like 5:30 at around 350°.

>> No.6696565

what seasonings did you mix the sausage with?

And why finish them in the oven? They should be cooked after the frying. But if you want to pop them in, check after about 10-15 mins.

And why did you post this? If you already preheated the oven and took the pic, you've probably already put them in anyways...

One pound of breakfast sausage with A tablespoon of sage and 2 of chopped fresh parsley.

And I haven't yet. I want to make sure I 'm doing the right thing, I don't want to ruin my work.

>> No.6696611

Never made them, so no quality input. I could give advice on soft boiling eggs, but you're past that part already. I'll be lurking though. I hope the sausage gets fully cooked this time.

And it's awesome
Put them in for like 6:00 or so on 375° and they're cooked most of the way through with a little bit of red here and there
Tastes goddamn amazing

You might be insulting me, but that sounds delicious. Got a recipe?

Anyway, so about that lard
I've been told I could reuse it, so I've used it like 4 times
But it did this weird bubbling thing this time, and also it looks like this now

You'll have to forgive me, I'm not American so I'm not familiar with those sorts of sausages. Could you describe them for me? Fat content, herb and seasoning content, shape, smoked, etc?

I personally find a nice Lincolnshire sausage works best for scotch eggs, but with so much to choose from you could use a new sausage every day and not run out for just under 3 years here.

>> No.6697120

>>6696725
Never had these before, but those look really good.
The eggs were just barely undercooked, but that's much better than boiling them too long.

>>6696955
I personally wouldn't use it more than three times.

I'm not a sausage expert but I'll tell you what I can.
Don't know how it's prepared, but it comes mashed in a cylindrical casing. It's not like Andouille, chorizo, or whatever in that it doesn't have a skin casing and it's made to be shaped into patties or fried along with eggs or something. Slightly spicy, nice flavor, goes bad pretty quick. Very easy to shape around the eggs. Mainly get it because it's a local business.

>>6697120
>but those look really good.
Thanks! Feels good to succeed after failure.
>The eggs were just barely undercooked, but that's much better than boiling them too long
Yeah, I used ones that cooked for 20 minutes before and it was awful.
>I personally wouldn't use it more than three times
Good idea. The shit looked like fucking tar on the bottom.

One time while visiting my home town, I decided to check out a new brewery. Apparently they converted a failed high dining business into a brew house, made the place as hipster as fuck, made a few decent beers and added an overpriced as fuck menu.

But hey, the beers were $5 each, so I got their porter and decided to get the "scotch eggs" on the menu. $10 for 2 eggs, pricey, but fuck it I'm on vacation and curious what this place has to offer.

What I got were two over cooked eggs on top of a pile of ground gouda and breadcrumbs that literally looked like crushed up store bough croutons with some parsley and shit sprinkled on the top. Fucking christ, last time I stick around a hipster restaurant.

American "breakfast sausage" is very similar to Lincolnshire sausage in flavor and texture. It's made from pork, coarsely ground, and the predominant seasoning is sage. Other seasonings include ginger, mace, and cayenne--pretty much the same as Lincolnshire. It's a fresh raw sausage and is rarely smoked. Usually it is mild but there do exist "hot" versions--these simply have extra cayenne.

The appreciable difference is the size of the casing. American breakfast sausage is typically sold in either small links (sheep's casing or an equivalent synthetic) or in a short, fat, cylinder which may have no casing at all. It's common to form it into patties and fry them in a pan--imagine a hamburger patty but smaller in size.

They're probably a little undercooked. I boiled them for a total of 8 minutes and had them in ice for 5. Next time I'll probably cook them for 9 or 10 instead.
