 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  3 1/4  pounds        turkey legs, deboned (do not skin or trim
                       fat)
    1/2  tablespoon    coarse kosher salt
  1      tablespoon    ground sage
    1/2  teaspoon      freshly ground black pepper
  1      teaspoon      dried rosemary
    1/4  teaspoon      ground ginger
    1/2  teaspoon      dried oregano
    1/8  teaspoon      cayenne pepper
  2      tablespoons   water

Work the turkey through a meat grinder, using the disc with the largest
holes. Add the remaining ingredients to the ground turkey and mix thoroughly
by hand. Form the mixture into patties, using about 1/4 cup for each.
Preheat a medium nonstick fry pan over medium-low heat. Transfer the patties
to the pan in batches. Cover and cook for about 10 minutes over medium-low
heat, flipping the patties after 5 minutes, until they are brown and crusty
on both sides. The turkey sausage will keep for up to 5 days in the
refrigerator or for 6 months, uncooked, in the freezer.

YIELD: 12-14 sausage patties
