Quijote dry chorizo (without nitrites) is a cured pork sausage with the perfect harmony of refined salty, smoky, and pleasantly sweet flavors. Chorizo gains its deep red color and smoky aroma from Spanish pimenton, or paprika. Cured in accordance with Spanish tradition - this chorizo has a wonderfully enriching flavor.

Production of chorizo was deeply intertwined with Spanish farmers' agricultural calendar. Spanish farmers fattened their pigs during warm months and then slaughtered them all together in mid-November. Then, the newly acquired meat was cured, fermented, and stored all at once, ensuring a consistent supply of meat all year round. As this process lived on, the farmers started generously lacing the meat with smoked paprika - something that evolved into a Spanish custom and gave the world one of its most renowned products - traditional Spanish chorizo. You will find a broad range of the world's best chorizo in our expertly curated collection at Yummy Bazaar.
