Kilmore Quay Seafood Sausages - Georgina Campbell's New Product Review supported by BIM

What better food could there be to begin a new year than a comforting and healthy sausage. While sausages are an all-year food, they’re especially appealing in the early months when the weather can be harsh and comfort food is the order of the day, along with simple cooking and pocket-friendly prices. Add to that the feel-good factor of serving up a different kind of sausage, made with fresh fish, and you have a winner on your hands.

Healthy, natural and tasty, we found that Kilmore Quay Seafood Sausages make a great ‘free-from’ alternative to ‘ordinary’ meat sausages. Easy to cook and versatile, they can be used to create seafood versions of many popular and family-friendly dishes such as sausages and mash (try them with a leek purée instead of onion gravy), or hot dogs.

They’re made with prime fillets of fresh fish and, on reading the informative label, you’ll find that Kilmore Quay Seafood Sausages contain no artificial additives, preservatives or colourings - and, as they are gluten-free, they are perfect for coeliacs.

The high fish content (77%) is impressive and - unlike most meat sausages, which have a high fat content - seafood sausages do not shrink during cooking and their firm texture means they can also be used successfully in sustaining soups and stews, such as seafood coddle. As they hold their shape when cooked, you could also use them in dishes where ingredients need to be chopped or sliced, such as a hearty soup.

Kilmore Quay Seafood Sausages are produced near the famous Co Wexford fishing village that inspired the name by Atlantis Seafood, a small scale family-run business that has worked directly with local fishermen since 1996. Offering sustainability and traceability, the company is BRC accredited and they are fully verified members of Origin Green.

Initially the company supplied fresh fish solely to the hotel and restaurant sector, but the customer base has grown and a retail range launched in 2012 - which includes Haddock Goujons, Smoked Salmon, Salmon Sensations, Cajun Salmon and Chilli & Chive Smoked Haddock as well as the Seafood Sausages - has proved very popular with consumers, who appreciate the convenience and value of these tasty products.

A new range for children is due to be launched soon - watch this space!

Available from: selected Dunnes Stores, Supervalu, and Tesco stores, price €3.99 per pack of five (300g).
