SHEEP CASINGS
Sheep casings are the thinnest, most delicate variety of casings. They have a lovely, translucent appearance and a delicate texture that gives Frankfurters their "snap" or "bite". No artificial casing has ever successfully replicated sheep casings' unique qualities. They are the secret of slim sausages with a snappy bite.
Casing choice is of course a matter of personal preference, but in case of uncertainty, here is our subjective guide to choosing the right casing.
