Italian Turkey Sausage

1 lb ground turkey
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1-1/4 teaspoons ground paprika
2-1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1/8 teaspoon anise seed
1/8 teaspoon fennel seed
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional--leave out for sweet Italian sausage)

Place the ground turkey into a large bowl. Season with salt, garlic salt, black pepper and paprika. In a blender, food processor or mortar and pestle, blend together the oil, anise seed, fennel seed and red pepper flakes. Mix everything into the ground turkey until well blended. Refrigerate for 24 hours to let flavors blend.
