What’s the Difference Between Hot, Sweet and Mild Italian Sausage?
You already know that Italian sausage — both hot and sweet, not to mention mild — tastes great. All three are packed with tons of Italian pork flavor. But what sets them apart? It’s all about the spice mix. What makes Premio Italian sausage special is its mix of Italian spices. It’s that special blend of herbs that makes Italian sausage unlike any other meat.
So how do you tell them apart? Start with your basic mild Italian sausage. The primary spice you’ll find here is fennel. This gives the sausage a distinct, delicious flavor that’s appealing to a wide variety of palates. For sweet sausage, we add some fresh sweet basil. Some people believe sweet Italian sausage tastes the way it does because we add in a lot of extra sugar, but really, it’s mainly that natural sweetness of the basil that brings out all that great sweet Italian sausage flavor.
So where does that leave your hot Italian sausage? Here it’s all about the addition of red pepper flakes. That red pepper spice gives our hot Italian sausage an extra kick that some sausage fans just can’t get enough of.
Why Choose an Italian Sausage Hot and Sweet Combo?
