Note:

NOTES:

Measurements are in grams unless the weight is too small for a standard kitchen scale to detect easily.

*You’ll want to work with your meat still partially frozen to make for an easier grinding process and to prevent the smearing of fat. It’s additionally recommended to freeze your grinding plates and other cutting parts prior to grinding.

**We recommend mace here because of it's subtle flavor. You can either buy pre-ground or buy as whole "blades" and grind to a powder using a molcajete. Should you prefer, you can use nutmeg or all-spice as an alternative. These spices both have a stronger presence than mace so you'll want to adjust accordingly.
