    Hi Leo,

    In making embutido how can i make sure that the packing is done tightly. normally when it is reheated it tends to break… especially when i don’t use any “sisal”

    Thanks

    hi, im aljun,makakabili po ba ako ng “pork casing” kahit saang market?
    and is it possible to have chorizo and tocino without any preservatives?

    • Leo says:

      @aljun, try mo sa public market wet section, mas mainam sana kung may alam kang slaughter house. pwede mong wag ng lagyan ng preservatives kung personal consumption lang.
