Potato Sausage

Potato Sausage with non fat dry milk is very similar to Swedish Potato Sausage. It is much easier to make as instead of boiling potatoes it calls for the addition of potato flour. Non fat dry milk effectively binds water and greatly improves the taste of low fat sausages. Adding potato flour, non fat dry milk, onions and water increases the yield by 40% making it not only great tasting but also a great value added product.
