Turkey Sausage Patties
Turkey sausage patties are a lean, ground turkey product seasoned with a blend of herbs and spices. Originating from American cuisine, they are a popular breakfast and brunch item, though versatile enough for use in various dishes. The flavor profile is typically savory and slightly sweet, with common seasonings including sage, thyme, garlic, and onion powder. Their texture is tender and crumbly when cooked properly, offering a lighter alternative to traditional pork sausage. In cooking, turkey sausage patties brown nicely and can be easily crumbled for use in casseroles or breakfast skillets. However, due to their lower fat content compared to pork sausage, they require careful cooking to prevent dryness.
