Homemade Sausage Making

I was working on a few projects tonight, but each of them seemed to be fighting me! So, I did what any good cook would do; I stopped working on the other projects, went inside the house, measured out 2 cups of raw almonds, placed them into a sieve, and told them they were about to get smoked!

I also cut up most of a block of cheddar cheese and told it the same thing! Neither one complained, so I fired up my home brew cold smoke generator and put them in the cabinet!







Should be good stuff!

I feel better now that I've vented and begun cooking something!

Any treatment for the almonds other than gently putting them in a basket in the smoker?

Every 20 minutes I toss them around a bit so the smoke hits all equally, or at least as best as my tossing can do...

More pics coming tomorrow...
