Jamie Bissonnette shares his secrets of delicious sausage

A sense of mystery and veneration surrounds the deli, the ancient art of turning an animal in the salty taste of salt: sausage, bacon, pastrami, Coppa and more.

The business has seen a dramatic resurgence of American cuisine in recent years. But that's not all mysterious, writes the director of the Boston and renowned teacher Jamie Bissonnette sausages on a national level.

Hand, many of the secrets of the trade in his new release "The New Deli Cookbook: Meat exceptional preparation and service of the house of healing" (side street Publishing 2014 $ 21.99).

It is a beautiful 176-page guide to deal with the shop in your own kitchen, skillfully presented by photographer Ken Goodman.

"People see the deli and say," have Wow, this guy has been training for years, "Bissonnette said yesterday." But for me, no, it was only my mother really bad meatloaf, and I wanted to learn to make good cake meat or sausage as my very good friends of European families of the old school had been hanging in his basement. "

The famous TV chef Andrew Zimmern wrote happy, Bissonnette wrote that "ordinary food, even strange things, things to take fifth quarter (courage, courage, the villain of something), and the angels weep."

Bissonnette has built its reputation in the kitchens of Boston, including 647 Tremont, East and former KO before he built Ken Oringer, dedicated in 2008 as executive chef and partner at Toro Tapas and Spanish sausage. The Coppa tandem open a South End wine store largely the deli Italian influence in 2009 dedicated.

Bissonnette national profile rose sharply last year, when Oringer opened Toro and in a recently gentrified section of Manhattan. (I found out Bissonnette Toro in New York earlier this summer, as well as works from the line, he ran to meet for a drink to former Bruins star friend Shawn Thornton.)

Delicatessen is often more a matter of patience and practice is the art of cooking tips. In many cases, only a few ingredients and a large amount of time it takes to produce beautiful food.

No plate illustrates this better than Coppa, fat and delicious sausage that comes from pig neck concept. If you have some spices, seven months and a cool, dark cellar, you can Coppa. It is meat that Bissonnette has called fame into life, than any other.

"I knew I had to my restaurant Coppa long before I knew I had to name one open," he wrote. "It was salty, spicy, greasy and delicious unpleasant. If I do that, I was in love."
