Making sausages is an ancient art that has made a huge comeback in recent years. 

While there is a science to making sausages, Tonia Reinhard's new book, The Complete Art & Science of Sausage Making, takes all the guesswork out of it, making it a fun, safe and exciting project for your home kitchen. 

She provides all the information you need to get started; from details about the right tools and equipment to an explanation of just how healthy sausages can be when you use the right ingredients and seasonings.

Tonia joins host Lisa to discuss some of the misconceptions about sausage (and sausage making), including the myths surrounding nitrites and nitrates, as well as some easy tips and tricks from her book.
