Venison Sausages (Roe Deer)

Incredibly juicy sausages made from game meat. Venison is very lean, so it's best to add pork fatback, or pork with a good streak of fat. The sausages come out juicy, with a rich, meaty flavor. Serve them with potatoes any way you like — boiled, mashed, or roasted — and they pair well with vegetables, too.

    1. First, clean the venison of any silverskin and sinew. Then soak the meat in cold water for about 2 hours, changing the water 3–4 times. This draws out excess blood, any gamey smell, and stray hairs that may have clung to the meat. 2. Cut the soaked venison and the pork into pieces small enough to run through a meat grinder along with the garlic. 3. Grind the black peppercorns in a mortar; crush the bay leaf and sift it (to catch any coarse bits, which are tough). Add salt and coriander to the spices — that's all you need. 4. Knead the ground meat well with the spices. If you have natural casings, form the sausages using a stuffing attachment. If not, use plastic wrap: spread a small amount of the meat into a sausage shape, roll it up in the wrap, then twist and tie off the ends. 5. Poach the sausages in boiling unsalted water (you can pierce the wrap while they cook so they don't float up). Cook for 1.5 hours, since game meat must be cooked all the way through. 6. For a nice color, grill the poached sausages before serving. They come out juicy and delicious, with no gamey taste or smell.
