What's the difference between sausage and ham sausage

Different ingredients and processing methods.

Sausage is a kind of long cylindrical tubular food, which is made by cutting animal meat into strips and filling them with casing. Sausages are made of small casings (or large casings) of pigs or sheep, which are filled with seasoned meat.

Ham sausage is made of livestock and poultry meat as the main raw material, supplemented by fillers (starch, plant protein powder, etc.). ), and then spices (salt, sugar, wine, monosodium glutamate, etc.). ), spices (onion, ginger, garlic, cardamom, Amomum villosum, aniseed, pepper, etc. ), quality improvers (carrageenan, Vc, etc. ), adding color fixative, water retaining agent and preservative.

1. Ham sausage contains nutrients such as protein, fat, carbohydrate, various minerals, vitamins and so on. It also has the advantages of high absorption rate, good palatability and strong satiety, and is also suitable for processing into various delicious dishes.

2. The recovery rate of dried sausage is about 65%. The lean meat of dried sausage is difficult to pinch, and the casing will shrink and wrinkle. Sausages that do not shrink, wrinkle and feel soft are of poor quality. Sausages should not be stored for too long, otherwise they will become moldy. Mildew sausages are easily contaminated by highly toxic botulinum, causing food poisoning.
