What is Spanish chorizo?

Spanish chorizo is a pork sausage seasoned with Spanish smoked paprika, known as pimentón. It’s typically made with coarsely chopped pork and garlic, and depending on the variety, may also include chilli for heat. The paprika gives chorizo its distinctive smoky flavour and deep red colour.

What is the difference between cooking chorizo and cured chorizo?

Cooking chorizo is a fresh, soft sausage that must be cooked before eating. It is moist and similar in texture to a classic British sausage, releasing delicious paprika-infused red oil as it cooks. Cured chorizo, on the other hand, has been air-dried and is ready to eat. It is firm in texture and enjoyed sliced, much like salami.

How do I serve cured chorizo?

Cured chorizo is best thinly sliced and served as part of a tapas spread, in sandwiches, as a pizza topping, or simply enjoyed on its own with good bread.
