Sausage Rolls - Better Than Greggs?

  • Опубліковано 18 сер 2024
  • Sausage rolls are a massively popular snack in the UK but strangely have not achieved world domination. A good sausage roll is nothing more than sausagemeat wrapped in puff pastry and baked until golden. Not that whole sausages are not used - there's never any sausage casing in a sausage roll.
    A written recipe for sausage rolls is here: keefcooks.com/... (please note this is an older recipe and is slightly different from what's shown in the video.

    I us asda's own label sage and onion stuffing for my rusk, quick bliz in the mini food chopper to make into bread crumb sized bits or pour the stuffing mix in a ziploc bag and beat it with the rolling pin or meat tenderizing hammer. I also go heavy on the pepper using white and black pepper as part of my spice blend which also includes garlic and onion granules and the dreaded MSG.
    I semi freeze the pastry before using the lattice cutter on it and really apply pressure to cut it all the way.
    To make the wash i only use the egg yokes with a pinch of MSG and salt. I use the seperated egg whites to make some meringues which will also go in the oven.
    If possable i will also use the oven to bake loaves of bread and anything else i can for food prep for the following days, char siu, slices and pasty's being the normal choices along with chicken nuggets for that nights supper.
    Thank you for your recipe i will give it a try and get the missus to do some testing. take care God bless One and All.

    Nice one Keef. I couldn't stop laughing with you getting your knickers in a twist. That's what comes of cheating on the pastry. My Thai family get me doing my Delia Smith sausage rolls every Christmas, using her pastry recipe. With the usual temperature here at 33c most days, pastry can be a problem. I tried ready made puff pastry once and cocked it up. I stick to Delia's recipe. I like your sausage meat recipe. I've run out of skins as my lovely wife cleaned out the fridge and threw my three years old salted skins out. Sausage skins don't grow on trees here, but when I get some I'm going to make your Lincolnshire sausages. I always look forward to your videos. Keep em coming. I'm still giggling.😂😂👍👍

    • @Gill3D
      @Gill3D Рік тому +1

      The sausage roll recipe in Delia Smith's Christmas book is indeed superb. I much prefer her flaky pastry to 'proper' puff pastry and I actually freeze the butter solid before I make it! I seem to spend most of Advent making batches of Delia's sausage rolls for the freezer. Fortunately, I live in Lincolnshire and it's very easy to get good sausagemeat from a butcher. Where I'd differ from Keef is that I would load the sausagemeat with a decent hit of ground black pepper and a heavy touch of ground mace. I must say, Greggs sausage rolls are very unpleasant to my palate.

    Sausage rolls look smashing mate. I love the Greggs ones, but more as a cheap(ish) snack, and not the pinnacle of sausage rollness, I like them because they are cheap and cheerful. Just thinking about your audio issue, do you use a boom mic? Because I cannot speak highly enough of the rode wireless go, which is what I use. Amazing audio and no faffing about with cables. Worth the money in my view mate. Always a pleasure to see the radiant Mrs Keef cooks too!

    • @Keefcooks
      @Keefcooks  Рік тому

      I use a Rode VideoMicro mounted on an invisible gantry above my head. I think the issue on this was either the jack plug from the extension cable or the mic input on the camera - I've given them both a good clean. I wouldn't mind the Go but dosh is tight at the moment.

    I’ll definitely try this. To be honest I used to like greggs but it’s got garbage in last 2 years - a pasty or sausage roll costing 80p is now 2 quid and as you say they are always clap cold now - I didn’t know about the law passed, I thought they were saving energy because of the cost 😂 just noticed recently how cold they are.

    Thanks for that video. Always good advice is never work warm pastry. If it gets near room temperature put it back in the fridge for an hour. I have been making my custom sausage rolls for years with Italian hot sausage meat, Panko breadcrumbs, Lea and Perrin's sauce and onions all cooked in a skillet then cooled for rolling. I like to buy flaky pastry because it is a lot of time consuming work to make. We just got back from a vacay in England, Scotland, Ireland and Northern Ireland and did eat some reasonable (?) sausage rolls from regional shops and of course, from Greggs. They obviously make to a price. Mine would cost much more than 1.20 Pounds Sterling. Thanks for that.

    Oh Yum sausage rolls, I've been stocking up on mince pork, pork belly fat & ready made flaky pastry in the freezer. Also got three sage plants in big pots growing too. I'll be onto this recipe over the weekend.
    I've got two 'Savory' plants I grew from seed earlier in the year too & they're ready for harvesting. I'm sure you did a recipe with savory, I'll have to check your vids. Thanks Keef.

    • @Keefcooks

      The only time I can remember mentioning savory is the video for Newfoundland Jiggs Dinner, although I didn't have any at the time. I've subsequently bought some online and I'm a bit 'meh'. ua-cam.com/video/c6VDM72lSHo/v-deo.html

    Hiya Mrs Keef! 👋 Good to see you. 😊
    I ate Greggs back when it was only in Newcastle so no idea what it tastes like now, but we're lucky to have reasonable sausage rolls available from our favourite supermarket here in Alberta, and which is owned by the Weston family of British origin so they sometimes sell traditional things we don't see available elsewhere.
    They look a bit like that Greggs one... 🥴
    Another Keef recipe to save in my savouries, traditional, and pies, pasties and sausage rolls folders. Yum.😋
    I loathe making fancy pastry so a favourite food I can create with packaged stuff is very well received.
    I might actually try my hand at this but I'm glad I don't have a lattice roller.
    Too tempting, and I would certainly destroy my expensive ready made stuff.
    Well done Keef. They look so damn good I can almost taste them! 😊👍👍👍

    Hi Keith, hope you and Mrs KeefCooks are both keeping well!
    I don't think anyone is doubting that hoke made sausage rolls are better than Greggs, but its a convenience food, usually bought when out shopping and feeling a bit peckish.. On a bitter cold winter day, rain pouring down, whilst shopping at the high street, you NEVER think "I'll just pop home, make some pastry, snip some sage from my garden, make my own sausage meat, lattice-ify my pastry, Prep and cook some sausage rolls, cook them in the oven for 30 to 35 ninutes, do all that washing up whilst waiting for them to cool down", do we?.... no, we think, "just pop into Greggs, buy a coffee and sausage roll, and eat it NOW"!!!
    Yours did kook and I'm sure taste delicious... I make similar, but add a little chilli jam for an added depth of flavour!!

    Stottie cake has a very distinctive texture and taste. Despite promises from supermarkets and 'artisan bakeries' I haven't tasted the real thing in 30 years. Though a few efforts were at least edible.
    I'll be trying this.
    As for pease pudding - I regard those who haven't tried it as seriously deprived.
    Not too long ago I almost convinced a young assistant at a Tesco deli counter that she was breaking the law if she offered sliced ham without the option of pease pudding. An older and wiser assistant warned her I was taking the wee-wee. Especially given they did have pease pudding and it proved to be just fine.
    But a warning. That canned stuff? Give it a miss!
