Thank you for the link! Many years ago I made a chicken sausage recipe for a competition. I hate sausage casings so I laid the meat in a long line on a length of cheesecloth. After rolling it up, I twisted it to make links and then boiled the string of sausages. Just as advised on the site, I scrubbed and boiled the cheesecloth to use again. I described my substitution for real casings in my documentation, but I had no idea it was done like that before or that I was making an English Pudding!
