Why? Because you can! And pickle, and jam, or otherwise celebrate the resurgence of the domestic arts our forebears held so dear. Put on your best apron and step into our kitchen, won't you?
The May challenge for Charcutepalooza was grinding either Merguez or Chorizo. I chose to do both! The chorizo was fantastic as tacos, topped with 7 month aged cheddar, and an avocado-tomatillo salsa.
My husband Chris made chorizo for the first time for the Charcutepalooza challenge. It was very simple and didn't cost a ton of money. We gave some to a friend and still have lots leftover in the freezer. We'll make it again for sure!
Spicy and smoky, sweet and tangy, this homemade chorizo sausage will make a killer breakfast sandwich or huevos racheros! The list of spices is long, but it's worth the effort, resulting in an alluring flavor.
