Basco Fresh Cooking Chorizo Picante, 1kg (Martinez Somalo, Spanish, Semi-Cured, Spicy, I.G.P., 3-Month Shelf Life) Reviews

Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

Our 1kg Basco Fresh Cooking Chorizo, made by Martinez Somalo in La Rioja, is a soft and moist sausage with a crispy exterior. With over a century of experience, this chorizo is semi-cured for just four days, allowing it to retain moisture while becoming crispy. The secret to its signature taste lies in the premium quality Spanish paprika used. This versatile ingredient comes with a three-month shelf life and is perfect for various cooking methods. Its vibrant color, soft texture, and spicy, aromatic taste are reminiscent of the traditional Riojan Chorizo, which was originally produced in the mountain valleys of La Rioja due to the ideal curing conditions. Since 1990, Riojan Chorizo has held the I.G.P. accreditation to protect its production.

Delicious. Ordered a kilo of fresh cooking chorizo. Excellent quality and flavour, just right for me. Tastes exactly as you would expect from an authentic chorizo anywhere on the Iberian peninsula. Perfect side in a barbecue, everyone wanted more.

I've tried a few other suppliers but this is by far my favourite chorizo. A great mix of texture and taste.
