SAUSAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
• Place pie crust dough onto a flat surface. Spread them generously with mustard. Spread 1/2 pound of sausage onto each pie crust. Flatten the sausage down with a spatula. Roll the pie crust mixture up like a jelly roll. Slice the roll into 1/2-inch circular pieces.
• Bake for 18 minutes or until sausage is cooked.

CHEF JOHN'S SAUSAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Place ground pork, onions, garlic, sage, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, coriander, thyme, cayenne pepper, and nutmeg in a mixing bowl. Mix with a fork until ingredients are evenly distributed, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide mixture in half and place each half on a length of plastic wrap. Use your damp fingers to shape each half into a cylinder, approximately the same length as the puff pastry. Roll up in the plastic and form into a round roll. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Whisk egg with water to make the egg wash.
• Separate the semi-frozen puff pastry dough into thirds. Halve one of the thirds lengthwise. Bring pastry to room temperature. Brush a 2-inch strip of egg wash along 1 long edge of the 2 larger pastry pieces. Place the narrower pieces on the egg wash strip, overlapping about 1 inch, to make a wider piece of pastry dough. Press lightly to form 2 wide lengths of pastry dough.
• Transfer 2 sheets of dough to a lightly floured piece of parchment paper; dust tops lightly with flour. Cover with another sheet of parchment. Roll gently to achieve an even thickness. Remove top sheet of parchment. Flatten the longs edges of the dough slightly about 1 inch wide so that when the roll-up is completed, the seam side won't be thicker than the rest of the dough. Place a sausage log at the end of a pastry sheet. Begin to roll the sausage log in the pastry, brushing the far edge with egg wash before sealing the edges together. Place seam side down on parchment and place on a dish. Repeat with 2nd sausage roll. Freeze until dough firms up, about 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat.
• Place rolls on a lightly floured surface. Lightly brush top and sides with egg wash. Cut each roll into 8 pieces. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Place on prepared baking sheet seam side down (standing up). Lightly press each roll to flatten it slightly so they don't fall over when baking.
• Place in preheated oven; bake until nicely browned, pastry is cooked through, and bottoms are browned, about 30 minutes.

SAUSAGE EGG ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, cook the sausage, green pepper and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Drain. In a large bowl, combine the coleslaw, pepper and salt; stir in sausage mixture. , Place 1/4 cupful of sausage mixture in the center of one egg roll wrapper. (Keep remaining wrappers covered with a damp paper towel until ready to use.) Fold bottom corner over filling. Fold sides toward center over filling. Moisten remaining corner with water; roll up tightly to seal. Repeat, In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat 1 in. of oil to 375°. Fry egg rolls, a few at a time, for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve with sweet-and-sour sauce.

CHINESE SAUSAGE BUNS (LOP CHEUNG BAO)

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the water, yeast and sugar until the yeast dissolves. Let the mixture sit until the yeast "blooms" and foams (about 15 minutes). Stir in 1 tablespoon oil and set aside.
• Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, salt, and baking soda in a medium-sized bowl, and stir in the yeast mixture using a spatula. After the dry and wet ingredients are incorporated, knead the dough with your hands (or in your mixer) until the dough becomes smooth and soft. If the dough looks sticky, add a bit more flour 1 tablespoon at a time, and continue kneading until the dough is smooth and soft. The dough should be soft, but not sticky.
• Coat the dough with 1 teaspoon of oil and cover with plastic wrap. Let the dough proof at room temperature until it has doubled in size (about 1 hour).
• While the dough is proofing, prepare your steaming device/setup of choice. (Check our Chinese cooking tools page for steamer setup options using a steamer rack in a wok or a multi-level metal steamer, both of which we use regularly in our kitchen.) Place the lop cheung (Chinese sausages) on a heatproof plate and steam for 10 minutes. Let cool.
• For this recipe, we called for a whole lop cheung in each bun, but if you feel this is too much, just split them lengthwise after they've steamed and cooled and use half a chinese sausage for each bun!
• After the dough is finished proofing, punch the dough down and knead it for a few minutes to get rid of all the air bubbles. Portion the dough into 10 equal balls and shape each ball into a long strip, measuring 10 inches long. Wrap each length of dough around one lop cheung so the dough overlaps. Tuck in the loose ends. This is the same method used in our recipe for Chinese Hot Dog Buns.
• Place each bun on one of your prepared rectangles of parchment paper, and place the buns into your steamer. Cover with a damp kitchen towel to keep the dough from drying out, and let rest for 20 minutes.
• Place the buns in the steamer with 1½ inches of cold water, and turn the heat on high. Once you can see steam coming out, turn the heat down to medium, and let the buns steam for another 10 minutes until they have expanded in size.
• Remove the steamer from the stove. Let the buns rest inside the steamer for 5 minutes--do not remove the cover. This is an important step, because if you remove the cover too early, the buns will collapse and lose their fluffy shape!
• After those five minutes have elapsed, transfer the buns to a plate and serve warm!
• These Chinese sausage buns freeze and reheat really nicely. Make sure you steam the buns and let them cool completely before freezing. Reheat by placing the frozen buns into a steamer, and steaming for about 10 minutes.

ASIAN SAUSAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Sausage Mixture:.
• Sauté the first 8 ingredients, breaking up the pork into very small clumps.
• Then add the remaining ingredients and cool to room temperature.
• Sourdough Refrigerator Biscuit dough:.
• Soften yeast in water.
• Sift dry ingredients. Cut in butter. In separate container mix liquid ingredients together. Add to dry ingredients all at once and stir until just moistened, no longer.
• Turn out onto a floured surface and knead a few times, adding just a little flour to keep the dough from sticking. Roll out to a thickness of one inch, cut into rounds 2 ½ inches in diameter, and place on a greased baking sheet with sides touching.
• Refrigerate overnight, covered with plastic wrap, or bake right away in an oven pre-heated to 400 degrees for about 18 minutes.
• Using Sourdough Refrigerator Biscuit dough, roll out a fistful of dough on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. Cut rounds of about 2-1/2 inches. Then roll each round again to make it thinner still. Then place about a Tablespoon of the sausage mixture in the center of the dough. Gather up the ends and pinch to form a sealed ball. Place on a greased baking sheet. Before baking, brush each roll with an egg wash (one egg yolk plus two teaspoons of cream) and top with sesame seeds. Bake in a 375 degree preheated oven for about 18 minutes, until nicely golden brown.
