I was give this recipe. To me it looked like there was way too much spices in it. So I sent Chef Jimmy a message to get his input. He suggested i make some changes in amounts. so I did. He went on to say "this guy is Combining multiple Brat styles together. Milk, Eggs and Garlic from a Thuringer Brat, Caraway, Celery Seed, Cardamom, Coriander and Marjoram from a German Classic Brat and a bunch of ingredients from a Wisconsin Brat recipe. "
I know about using tried and true recipes, but the guy that gave me this swears its a old family recipe, and is good.
So now I'd like to hear from others that have A LOT more knowledge then I do on sausage making, what do ya all think? Will it work and be a decent sausage? Should I scrap it and find another? Changes/omissions you would make, ECT. Any and all input on this is GREATLY appreciated good bad or ugly.
Here is the ingredient list in the amounts Jimmy suggested. The original amounts are to the right of the ingredient in red.

2 Cups Nonfat Powdered Milk
3 Tablespoons Kosher Salt (4 Tablespoons)
2 Tablespoon White Sugar
