Instructions:
Step 1: Preparing the Filling
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the sausage meat, chopped onion, minced garlic, dried sage, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
Step 2: Assembling the Sausage Rolls
- Roll Out Pastry: Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface into rectangles, approximately 12×6 inches each.
- Add Filling: Divide the sausage mixture evenly between the two pastry sheets, forming a long sausage shape along one edge of each pastry rectangle.
- Roll and Seal: Roll the pastry over the sausage meat, enclosing it completely, and press the seam to seal. Trim any excess pastry if necessary.
- Cut and Arrange: Cut each roll into smaller pieces, about 2 inches in length, and place them seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3: Baking the Sausage Rolls
- Apply Egg Wash: Brush the tops of the sausage rolls with beaten egg wash for a golden finish.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, and the sausage is cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Once baked, transfer the sausage rolls to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
Jenna Dewan Mourns: ‘You Showed Me I Could Become a Mother’
The 43-year-old actress Jenna Dewan is mourning the passing of Meeka, her cherished puppy. Meeka, who was eighteen, died on May 28. On May 29, Jenna posted a touching ode to her “first baby” on Instagram. Over the years, she shared a number of pictures of herself with Meeka, including ones of Meeka with Jenna’s kids, Callum Kazee, 4, and Everly Tatum, 10, who are Jenna’s children.
In the tearful message, Jenna talked about how much she loved her animal friend and how many memories they had made together. She made the amusing comment that Meeka and she have “more eras than” Taylor Swift. As Jenna had different experiences and became a mother, she also acknowledged Meeka’s important influence in her life.
Meeka was Jenna’s continuous comfort and support system during their 18-year journey. She traveled the world with the devoted puppy, who also supported her during the difficult postpartum and quarantine periods. Jenna will always treasure the memories she shared with Meeka, who was the queen of the house.
Jenna expressed thankfulness for the dog’s calm transition even in Meeka’s last hours. She feels that because Jenna is currently expecting a child with her fiancé, Steve Kazee, Meeka’s soul will continue to watch over them and the new member of their family.
This loss occurs after Wylie, a rescue dog, was adopted by Jenna and Steve in 2021. With their furry friends and kids by their sides, they are creating a loving family. Jenna is thankful for the wonderful gift Meeka was and their enduring relationship, even though she is greatly missed.
Let’s pay tribute to and remember Jenna’s cherished puppy, Meeka, who filled her life with so much happiness and company.
