The only sausage you need to be mindful of is chorizo, Spanish chorizo is cured and will last for up to eight weeks without being frozen. Mexican chorizo, on the other hand, can be frozen cooked and uncooked.

How to freeze
- 1. Firstly, cook sausages as per your recipe or alternatively cook on medium-high heat in a well-oiled pan until cooked through.
2. Allow to cool completely before placing in layers in an airtight container. Line each layer with baking paper to stop the sausages from sticking together and so you can defrost a couple of sausages at a time (the same rules apply for sausage rolls and meatballs.)
3. Label the container with today’s date (and expiry date) and place in the freezer for no longer than three months.
