Sheep Casings for Sausage Making

Sheep casing, sausage sheep casing, or sausage sheep skin is the outer layer material that encloses the filling of the sausage. "Meat processors use casings to give sausages their shape. Most sausages are cylindrical, but can come in other forms." There are natural and artificial casings. Sheep casing is one of several different natural casings.

It is often assumed that sausages were invented by the Sumerians in the region that is Iraq today, around 4000 BC. However there are references to a cooked meat product stuffed in a goat stomach, like what we now commonly call sausage described as a recipe in the world's oldest cookbook 3,750 years ago. The Chinese sausage làcháng, which consists of goat and lamb meat, was first mentioned in 589 BC. The Greek poet Homer mentioned a kind of blood sausage in his Odyssey (book 20, poem 25); Epicharmus (ca. 550 BC - ca. 460 BC) wrote a comedy entitled The Sausage. Numerous books report that sausages were already popular among the ancient Greeks and Romans. (Wikipedia)

The American Sience Association notes that there are there are three main types of casings: "natural, artificial (Cellulose), and reconstituted collagen (Fibrous)" Heinsohn's carries all three and has natural sheep casings and hog casings.

Uses of Natural Sausage Casings (like sheep casings) are used as the outer casing in the production of, and dried fermented sausages.

Natural Sheep Casing Features

Natural Sausage Casings are typically made from sections of an animal's digestive system including the small intestine, large intestine or stomach. Casings can also be made from the bladder, caecum, or esophagus. Our sheep casings are made from stomach intestines. These casings are naturally edible, and have a tender texture.
