to a syrupy consistency over water that is 100 to 110 degees F.
Remove and allow gelatin to thicken slightly. Set the bowl of
bean/vegetable misture into a large bowl filled with ice and stir
occasionally as it cools. Add the gelatin. folding to combine, and
continue stirring until thickened and well chilled. To assemble
sausage, spoon mixture onto a sheet of plastic wrap in a long line.
Roll up (like a cigar), twisting the ends closed and securing with
butchers twine, if desired. Chill 3 or 4 hours or overnight. To
serve, remove plastic and cut on the bias into 1/2-inch- thick slices.
