Fun and satisfying....and you can have a few beers while you compose and produce sausages worth a month's consumtion

Yea I agree ,
hard to get a good sausage also , and don't get me started about hot dogs.
The adage 'If you want to do it right do it yourself" is very true and as I find more and more, more so in Thailand
I do make my own sausage. Easy enough to do, but It has never occurred to make a ham .(other than cook one of course)
Now that I am retired , I certainly have the time. I will look it up on YouTube.
Another thing I cant find in Thailand is good olives. Over the summer we were traveling in Greece, and when we returned last week, I brought with us three kilos of raw olives. 1K Kalamata. and 2k large Green.
As instructed I will be soaking them in water for a couple of weeks (changing the water every day) and then brine them.
I will post the resulting success or failure.
