For an extra layer of flavor, toast the fennel and coriander seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for a minute or two before grinding. If you prefer a spicier sausage, increase the amount of red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper to your liking. These sausage patties can be grilled or pan-fried directly from frozen. Adjust cooking time accordingly. To ensure even cooking, make sure the patties are uniformly shaped and thickness. Feel free to experiment with other herbs and spices to create your own signature Italian sausage blend.
