Chapter 21: Success
Sosora, Kai, Lora, and Kavam returned not long after Nick was done with the dishes. The Ursa family brought another dead boar. It was a little smaller this time, but it would still be enough to feed them all. As promised, Sosora brought a pouch of sand and some tools for scraping and rubbing.
The main process was the same as yesterday. They strung up the boar and drained it of as much blood as possible before skinning it and cutting it up in a bunch of pieces, which were then minced.
It went a little smoother than yesterday.
Then came the intestinal cleaning section.
Sosora was amazed by Nick's water hose and could barely stop playing with it. Since that was the case, she got put in charge of cleaning the intestines. She dumped the sand into the intestines and blew it through them with the highest pressure on the hose several times before then rinsing several times.
After that, she rubbed and massaged the intestines' outsides with the sand and the tools she brought, removing any waste, blood, and whatever else they did not want to be part of the sausage.
However, her experience when making bows was a drawback. The innards weren't as sturdy and durable as what she was used to, so they ripped in several places. But a lot of it was still useful and seemed cleaner than yesterday, so no one blamed her.
She did a better job than any of them would have done, but she still felt apologetic about it.
After that little mishap, they continued as they had done yesterday. They mixed the minced meat with Nick's spices before gently stuffing it into the innards. Since Sosora had deft fingers, she got to tie up the ends.
