Description
WHAT IS CHORIZO VELA PICANTE?
Like Basco Chorizo Vela Dulce, Chorizo Vela Picante is a slicing sausage made in the Rioja region with the same smoky, garlic flavour. However, in the case of Vela Picante the spicy, chili-hot version of the Pimenton de la Vera is used which makes a chorizo sausage with a little more punch and a chili kick. In every other sense the sausage is the same; made by Martinez Somalo, using the thick cuts of pork to make a lean and meaty sausage with that distinctive lush red colour and smoky flavour.
HOW TO SERVE CHORIZO VELA?
Vela Picante Chorizo is fully cured meaning that it is ready to eat without any further cooking. At 1.5kg it is an ideal size for slicing and serving as a tapa with jamon, olives or manchego cheese. Alternatively, you slice Vela Picante Chorizo into the traditional Spanish bocadillo sandwich.
STORAGE
Chorizo Vela Picante is gluten-free and refrigerated will keep up to 6 months unopened. Once opened the sausage will need to be wrapped tightly in cling-film and used within 3 weeks.
