SCOTTISH LORNE SAUSAGES: SQUARE BREAKFAST SAUSAGE!
Wherever you go in Scotland you will come across Scottish Lorne Sausage, which are square and sliced. Whether you be in a Hotel, a Guest House or a Bed and Breakfast, you will be offered a Scottish cooked breakfast, that will usually include the slices of this Scottish Lorne sausage. It is nearly always on a breakfast menu, along with bacon, egg, and "tattie" (potato) scones, and many Scots will eat it in a bread roll for lunch or maybe serve it with potatoes and vegetables for dinner. This is an easy recipe - and the sausage can be frozen in slices for ease and convenience. Prep time includes chilling time. What's in a name? It is thought that the Lorne sausage, which also goes by the names of square sausage, sliced sausage or sausage slice, was an invention of the Scottish comedian Tommy Lorne who lived from 1890 and died in 1935. He was born in Kirkintilloch near Glasgow. His birth name was Hugh Gallagher Corcoran. Tommy Lorne performed in many Scottish theatres and often performed in Glasgow and Edinburgh and was much in demand for pantomime. In his own acts he would apply white make-up and wear a short kilt, a glengarry, boots that were far too big for him and a jacket that was short. He spoke in an hilarious high pitched voice. It is thought that Lorne sausages were named after Tommy Lorne because of one of his famous catchphrase: "sausages are the boys" - he loved his sausages! He often ate a sausage sandwich between his acts. It has even been suggested that not only were Lorne sausages named after Tommy Lorne and to give people an easy to make sausage sandwich, but that Tommy Lorne was the inventor of the Lorne sausage.

Steps:
- Line your loaf tin, or whatever you're using to make the square sausage, with clingfilm, with enough hanging over the edges to wrap over the opening once you've put the sausage meat in it.
- Add all the ingredients to a bowl and use your hands to thoroughly combine.
- Squash the sausage meat into the loaf tin as densely as possible. If you have any leftover you can set aside to make meat patties out of it!
- Wrap the clingfilm over the top so it's fully covered and place in the freezer for 2 hours, or until firm enough to slice.* Alternatively, leave it in the refrigerator for 24 hours until it is firm.
- Remove the sausage from the tin using the clingfilm to lift it out and then cut into 1cm slices.
- You can use it immediately, put it in the fridge to be used within the next 2 days, or put pieces of baking paper between slices and place them in a container to fully freeze and pull out to use as you wish.
- Cook in a frying pan for a few minutes each slide or grill and then serve in a morning roll with your choice of sauce, or as part of a full Scottish breakfast!

LORNE-STYLE FRESH BREAKFAST SAUSAGE
Lorne is a fresh, uncured, uncased, spiced sausage traditionally served as a Scottish breakfast staple. The spice combination is more reminiscent of a French meat pie or a black pudding rather than an American country sausage. Lorne is traditionally served with soft potato flatbreads called "Tatties."

Steps:
- Mix together ground beef, ground pork, bread crumbs, beef broth, brown sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder, 1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt, 1 1/4 teaspoons pepper, 1 1/4 teaspoons coriander, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon allspice in a large bowl until well combined. Shape some of the mixture into 2 or 3 small patties and place remaining sausage mixture in the refrigerator.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add sausage patties and cook until browned and cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side; do not overcook or sausages will be dry. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
- Taste cooked sausages, adding more salt, pepper, and/or spices to the uncooked mixture as desired. Press uncooked sausage mixture into loaf pans and place in the refrigerator until firm, 2 to 3 hours.
- Remove sausage "loaves" from the pans and slice into 1/2-inch slabs. Separate slabs with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator if you will be cooking all sausage within 4 days. Cook as directed above, over medium-low heat.

Tips:
- Use high-quality pork: Lorne sausage is traditionally made with pork shoulder, but you can also use pork butt or ham. Choose meat that is fresh and has a good fat-to-lean ratio.
- Grind the meat coarsely: This will give the sausage a more rustic texture. If you don't have a meat grinder, you can ask your butcher to grind the meat for you.
- Season the sausage well: Lorne sausage is typically seasoned with salt, pepper, sage, and thyme. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to taste.
- Chill the sausage before cooking: This will help the sausage hold its shape while cooking.
- Cook the sausage over medium heat: This will prevent the sausage from burning. If you are cooking the sausage in a pan, be sure to add a little bit of oil or butter to prevent sticking.
- Cook the sausage until it is browned on all sides and cooked through: The sausage should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
Conclusion:
Lorne sausage is a delicious and versatile breakfast meat. It can be served on its own, with eggs and toast, or used as an ingredient in other dishes, such as sandwiches, casseroles, and soups. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this recipe is a great way to make your own Lorne sausage at home.
