Tonight I prepared two different kinds of sausages: salsiccia Altavillese (Altavilla, Palermo, Sicily) and some plain ones.

| You need pork neck and bacon, natural sausage skin, olive oil, white wine, ground black pepper, salt, crushed fennel seeds, thyme, chives, and a mincer and a sausage maker. | 
| Chop the meat into smaller bits. | 
| Mince the meat. | 
| This is a mix for plain sausages with little chives, thyme, black pepper, salt, a splash of olive oil and white wine. | 
| For the Salsiccia Altavillese mix you need minced meat, salt, black pepper, fennel (finocchietto) seeds, and a splash of extra virgin olive oil and white wine. | 
| Insert carefully the natural pork skin into the feeder of the sausage maker. Tie a knot at the end of the skin. | 
| Twist 3 turns. Alternate between clockwise or anti-clockwise twists. | 
| It's quick and economical to make sausages. It took approximately two hours to make 3,5 kilos of sausages and it cost less than 20 euros. | 
| Grill or fry them, and enjoy! Sausages freeze well. |
