Absolutely no need to apologize. That's what makes this such a great place - people looking out for other peoples safety & helping each other out. I do appreciate the warning as I had made no prior mention of cure in the Polish sausage & had I not known to use it you might have prevented me from causing someone to get sick & that is a good thing
Were your casings packed in a salt solution/brine or just packed in salt. My casings come in salt water solution. I just re use the contents and place them back in the bag and into a ziplock container. For the ones left over I didnt used and washed I place them in a small mason jar with salt and distilled water.. About half a cup each... Make sure you use non Iodized salt when packing the casings. I dont see no need to freeze them. the fridge will do just fine
They were in a salt solution/brine. When I put each strand in its own snack baggie & added the salt it pulled just the right amount of moisture out to make a brine just like they came in so I figured they would be ok to store that way. I hope so at least - I would hate to waste almost a whole hank of good casings...
Don't know how I missed this. I have done the beer & onions but never tried the kraut - will have to do that soon...
