This helps make for a more ((springy sausage)) when you cook it.
There are many binders for salami and sausage corn starch is but one.
I would have used it in the other stuff I made but just knew I didn't have any.
Low and behold I had a brand new box all I had to do is look where I keep it.

I try to stay away from premixed ingredients and use stuff readily available.
Not that there is anything wrong with premixed it just isn't the way I do things.
