Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the ground veal, ground pork, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and white wine. Mix until the ingredients are well distributed.
- Soak the sausage casings in a bowl of cold water to make them easier to work with.
- Using a sausage stuffer, gently stuff the meat mixture into the casings. Be careful not to overstuff. Twist the sausages into 6-inch links.
- Preheat your grill to medium heat. Lightly brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent the sausages from sticking.
- Grill the sausages for about 7 minutes on each side, or until they're cooked through and browned. Ensure they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) for food safety.
- Serve the grilled sausages on slices of rustic bread with a side of tangy mustard. Enjoy the taste of Italy right at your home!
Tips
- You can also pan-fry the sausages in a hot skillet with a bit of oil if you don't have a grill.
- Try serving with pickled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete Italian meal.
