Longaniza
Longaniza is a seasoned pork sausage originating from Spain, distinguished by its bold garlic, paprika, and vinegar marinade that creates a tangy, aromatic profile. While similar to chorizo, it typically uses fresh rather than smoked paprika and features a finer grind, resulting in a smoother texture. This versatile sausage is enjoyed grilled, fried, or stewed across Latin American and Filipino cuisines, offering high protein content but notable saturated fat levels characteristic of cured meats.
