Where to find ingredients
Look for Brazilian-style calabresa sausage in the deli or chilled meats section; onion and oregano are available in the produce and dried herbs aisles. If calabresa is unavailable, a smoked sausage substitute can be used, but the original is ideal.
Preparation method
- Add the grated calabresa sausage and chopped onion to a pan
- Sauté over medium heat until the onion is soft and the sausage is nicely browned
- Remove any excess fat that has collected at the bottom of the pan
- Sprinkle the oregano over the mixture and stir well
- Let the filling cool completely before using it in your recipes
Observations
A versatile filling, ideal for pizzas, baked savory snacks, or pies. The key to a good result is making sure the mixture is well dried out and cold before using it in the dough.
