These sausages keep without freezing; they will only air dry in refrigerator. Will stay fresh up to 3 weeks. Sausages need air circulation. Best if wrapped in paper towel. Can also be left in original unopened vacuum tight packaging. Should vacuum packaging become loose - indicating an air leak - remove immediately and wrap in paper towel. You can freeze these items up to 2 months without affecting their flavor or quality. Defrost sausage slowly in refrigerator, do not thaw at room temperature.
