As someone who is loyal to products that I have bought hundreds of times, I still decided to break the rule once and try TH true FOOD's Cocktail sausage to see if the flavor is as surprising as its name.
Mothers with growing children will probably sympathize with this habit of mine: Every time I go to the supermarket, I have to buy a few packs of sausages to bring home; partly because all children love this dish; partly because it is convenient for me to prepare breakfast or snacks for my children.
This time, I decided to try buying Cocktail sausages from TH true FOOD because the name sounded interesting and new. Moreover, my whole family is familiar with and trusts many products of the TH brand such as fresh milk, yogurt and butter, so I really expected the impression of Cocktail sausages to be as good as with other products.
First impressions
Each package of TH true FOOD Cocktail sausage weighs 250gr, with an expiry date of 61 days from the date of manufacture.
According to the information printed on the front of the packaging: TH true FOOD's Cocktail Sausage does not use preservatives and borax, is smoked with natural flavor, and is produced using modern technology, ensuring food safety.
The information printed on the back of the packaging states: The ingredients of TH true FOOD Cocktail Sausage are 75.6% pork and chicken. In particular, there are also shallots, coriander, vinegar powder - celery. That is the true meaning of Cocktail Sausage - protein, fiber. In addition, the ingredients also include water, thickener (1412), wheat protein, synthetic flavor, onion oil, dextrose, collagen coating, flavor enhancer (621), pepper, fish sauce, stabilizer (450(iii), 451(i), 450(i), salt, sea urchin, acidity regulator (327), natural color (120), chili powder.
The packaging of the product makes a good impression, carefully vacuum-sealed. When opening the bag of TH true FOOD's Cocktail sausage, the first impression is the characteristic, pleasant smoky aroma. A 250gr package has 12 sausages connected together, each about 2 finger joints long.
When learning about the sausage production process, I learned that to have delicious sausages, TH true FOOD has applied a strict production process from raw material selection to processing and packaging at TH Clean Food Processing Factory with a system of 12 modern production lines from leading European, Japanese and Korean brands.
It is known that the factory has achieved FSSC 22000 food safety management system certification. High-tech production lines help to preserve the maximum flavor, freshness and natural nutrition of the dish.
When not processed, TH true FOOD's Cocktail sausage has a natural bright orange color, gloss, and the characteristic aroma of smoked products.
What is the flavor of TH true FOOD's Cocktail Sausage?
To have the most honest and accurate review of the flavor of TH true FOOD's Cocktail sausage, I tried to prepare this sausage in 3 ways, from simple to complex.
Method 1: Steam and fry sausages with an air fryer
I steamed the sausages on medium heat for 3 minutes; and air fryed them at 180 degrees for 5 minutes.
Result: Even when steamed at high temperature, without cutting, the collagen layer does not break. The sausage remains soft, moist, crispy, and the smoky flavor is still strong after processing. In particular, the sausage has a very balanced taste, not salty at all. With a product with moderate saltiness like this, children can enjoy it without having to eat any other dishes.
With the method of steaming and frying with an air fryer at the right temperature and time, TH true FOOD's Cocktail sausage still retains its collagen shell, is not dry, has a very delicious natural flavor, and is not salty at all.
Method 2: Sausage fried with butter and garlic
With this method, don't forget to score the sausage so that it absorbs the garlic butter flavor better. Put the butter in the pan and melt it. Then, add the minced garlic and saute until fragrant. When the garlic is golden brown, add the sausage and reduce the heat, let the sausage cook and absorb the garlic butter flavor.
Use TH true FOOD's Cocktail Sausage to make garlic butter sausage
With this preparation method, I find that TH true FOOD's Cocktail sausage has 2 advantages:
Firstly, this small sausage ball form cooks quickly, absorbs spices faster, and reduces cooking time.
Second, the natural smoke flavor combined with the richness of the garlic butter makes the overall flavor of the dish - according to my child's comments, more unique and delicious than a dish prepared in the same way, with the ingredient being sausage without the smoke flavor.
Method 3: Dice and fry with rice
My recipe for this fried rice is nothing special except for cold rice, eggs, TH true FOOD's Cocktail sausages, sweet corn and peas. To make the fried rice fluffy and delicious, I will mix the cold rice with eggs before putting it in the pan, stir well with diced sausages, sweet corn and peas.

Before turning off the stove and serving the rice, I added 1 teaspoon of fish sauce and stirred well. I did not add any other spices because my family has a habit of eating bland food. Even though I added fish sauce, the smokey taste of TH true FOOD's Cocktail sausage was still quite clear, the sausage was still soft and the collagen coating was still chewy, even after being diced and fried for about 7-8 minutes.
Summary
After trying to prepare TH true FOOD's Cocktail sausages in 3 different ways, my general feeling - as a chef, is that not only is the natural smoked smell very clear, the preparation is also very quick and convenient, not taking much time because the sausages are already small and bite-sized.
My children - "culinary experts in the field of sausages" all praised it, whether it was steamed sausages, air fryer sausages, garlic butter sausages, or even sausage fried rice. They absolutely loved and were impressed with the natural smoked flavor of TH true FOOD Cocktail sausages.
Certainly, in the future, I will add TH true FOOD's Cocktail sausages to the list of must-buy sausages, because of their delicious taste, and especially these small sausages are convenient for both the cook and the person enjoying them on many different occasions, from the afternoon snack prepared by mom to picnics and outings with school.
