Sausage making is SO interesting! (I can't believe I said that)

Remember, sausages are a way of preserving meat... so I had 5 lbs of leftover cooked ham and did not like the thought of tossing it out! Sausages were the answer.

But I didn't have a recipe for ham sausage and I looked everywhere I could think of on the web. I DID find a recipe for ham appetizers that you can roll into little balls and serve with other goodies. So I took some of the ingredients from THAT recipe and added some that seemed to go based on experience.

The use of the applesauce comes from two sources... it certainly goes well with ham and it is also used as a fat reducer in some baking like baked breads.

As far as the QE: (the name, I guess, comes from the count of spices in it)

7 tbsp white pepper
1 tbsp nutmeg, ground
1 tbsp cloves, ground
1 tbsp ginger, ground
1 tbsp cinnamon, ground

I put it in an empty spice container and labeled it and hopefully won't use it again on porterhouse steak by mistake... (the old container was a garlic container... need I say more?)

It is pretty much an apple-pie spice with pepper in it. It gives a great backgound flavor to many sausages... probably want to stay away from using it in Italian sausage?
