Homemade Longganisa

Longganisa 

1kilo pork, beef or chicken (Kung ano gusto mo karne gamitin) 
1cup organic brown sugar ( more healty) 
2 tbsp cornstarch 
1 tbsp seasoning
2 tbsp sweet chili hot sauce  or just chili hot
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (mas masarap ito gamitin kesa soy souce) 
1 buong garlic chopped 
2 tsp pepper (durugin) 
1 tsp salt

Mix everything and allow to marinate overnight. I really didn’t care for the paprika, and just added enough for flavor, and for color. You can have loose longganisa as is, or stuff it as I did in a casing.  Let it hang around for a couple of hours to “dry” or cure. Supposedly, the garlic acts as a preservative to the mix. Then store in the freezer afterwards. If you don’t, it will stink up the whole fridge.
