Our very own sausage. Part One

4M were given the exciting challenge of producing a 'Wicor' sausage using ingredients sourced from our grounds. Surveys were given to our staff and parents asking what their preferred ingredients are in a sausage. We extended our market research by conducting a sausage survey in Portchester village.

Our local award winning butcher Twell's kindly offered to produce our sausage and we had a chance to actually see him making sausages.The smell was meaty as we looked around the butchers .The machines were huge and weird because they were different to what we would expect them to look like in real life .

The sausage meat went into the top of the machine, the butcher pressed a button the meat shot out in casing in one long tube shape. To make the sausages into the right shape they were knotted by a method called knitting.
