Receta Longganisa Tuguegarao
This longganisa Tuguegarao is a non-sweet type, salty and garlicky longganisa very similar to Vigan longganisa or Lucban longganisa. It is also known as longganisang Ybanag and it is famous in the region of Cagayan Valley. When making your own longganisa or sausages, it is better if your have your own meat grinder so you can grind the correct type of meat and the proportion of lean meat to the fat. It is very important to use this technique if you want to make your longganisa either lean or with right amount of pork fat. In making longganisa or sausages, there should be at least 30 percent fat and it should be coarsely chopped or ground. If not coarsely ground, the fat will easily soften and you will have a hard hard time stuffing it into the hog casing specially if you are using a funnel or a meat grinder with a sausage stuffer nozzle. The fat will also make your longganisa tender and juicy whereas the very lean longganisa is very dry and hard.
