Spanish Chorizo

Spanish Chorizo

EverydayDried

Spanish chorizo is a dried, cured pork sausage originating from Spain, distinguished by its bold seasoning of smoked paprika and garlic. The air-dried preparation method gives it a firm, sliceable texture and concentrated savory-umami flavor, requiring no cooking before consumption. High in protein but notable for its sodium and saturated fat content, this gluten-free sausage features prominently in tapas platters and cooked dishes like paella, differing from fresh Mexican chorizo in both texture and preparation.
