One of the heavy breakfast treats is a combination of fried rice, egg and what else but link meats of either longaniza or chorizo. What's the difference?
Ok let's see... Longganisa or Longaniza is made of minced meat and spiced with black pepper. On the other hand, Choriso or Chorizo is a ground pork spiced with paprika. The rest of the ingredients are almost similar to both dishes. In the Spanish culture these two dishes are differently identified in many ways. But in our community, longaniza and chorizo are interchangeably used.
Living away from what used to be our residence gave us the longings for what used to be our comfort foods. Once in a while, we look for that flavour to reconnect with the past and walk down memory lane, reason for me to recreate and be occupied.😁. Sharing this recipe--
HAMONADO CHORIZO
Makes about 20 small links
1 head garlic minced
1 large onion
¼ c brown sugar
¼ c pineapple juice
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 ½ tbsp LKK Superior light sauce
1 tbsp paprika powder
Atsuete Oil : 1 tsp atsuete powder dissolved in 1 tbsp hot oil
½ kilo ground pork with fats
Salt & Black pepper
Fresh baby intestine (small intestine, pork), cleaned or you can buy artificial casing from the grocery or online.
In a bowl, place all ingredients except the intestine. Mix to combine. Ready for stuffing.
Clean the intestine. Turn the intestine inside out, rub it with salt and rinse completely. Ready to use.
You can use your sausage stuffing machine, some of the stand mixer have this feature, but i did the manual process using a funnel and manually push the mixture into the intestines. Tied it with kitchen twines to make smaller links, and this is how it looks like... You can cook it right away or freeze for future cooking. Great for breakfast serve with roasted garlic-vinegar dipping sauce!
Amazingly Glazed! 😋
