How to Make Kielbasa How To Cook Fresh Homemade Kielbasa
- If your kielbasa is frozen, thaw it slightly in the refrigerator overnight or until it's pliable.
- Place the fresh kielbasa in a large pot. Add 1 medium onion (quartered), 10-12 peppercorns, 4-6 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon dried marjoram, and ½ bay leaf.
- These spices help replenish the flavor lost during cooking.
- Add enough boiling water to completely cover the kielbasa.
- Cover the pot and simmer over very low heat for 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 155°F (68°C).
- Avoid rapid boiling; this can cause the sausage to burst.
- Do not prick the sausages; this will cause them to dry out.
- Once cooked, let the kielbasa cool completely in the cooking liquid.
- The sausage will be moist and delicious, although not browned.
- After cooling, the kielbasa can be frozen for later use. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil or use a vacuum sealer for best results.
