Quijote Brand Chorizo<\/h2>\n

\"Quijote<\/a>There are many varieties of chorizo sausage in the world.\u00a0 I prefer the Spanish version, which is an ‘eating’ sausage, fermented, dried, smoked, ready for slicing.<\/p>\n

It’s made from pork, fat, and a heavy dose of smoky paprika, along with a few other spices. It’s much milder than “Mexican chorizo” which incorporates chili peppers and is removed from the casing before frying in a skillet, being mashed, and taking on the appearance of finely ground beef.<\/p>\n

I don’t see the Spanish variety in stores very often, so when I do, I pick it up. Driving across the Deep South last week, I stumbled onto a display of product in a grocery store, made by Elore Enterprises Inc., a Miami company located near MIA and five miles west of Biscayne Bay (pic below).<\/p>\n

It’s very smoky and has the requisite firmness.\u00a0 These particular sausages are about three inches long and 3\/4 inch in diameter.\u00a0 “Fun size” my daughter would say.<\/p>\n

If you want a change of pace in a nice, firm, slightly spicy, slicing “salami” – you should give this style a try.<\/p>\n
