Spanish Chorizo - Picante

Made from a generations-old recipe in La Rioja, Spain, this chorizo gets its deep, smoky flavor from picante smoked paprika grown in the La Vera valley. Don't let "hot" fool you — this is mildly spicy, not Mexican-chile heat, with a piquant blend of pork, garlic, salt, and that distinctive smoked paprika that sets Spanish chorizo apart. All natural and with no artificial preservatives, it's fully dry-cured and ready to eat. Pair with cheese and crusty crusty bread, or simmer in red wine for an incredible app. We like it warmed in the pan and thrown into a breakfast burrito.

Palacios was the first authentic Spanish chorizo to reach the US, earning features in The New York Times and Wine Spectator.
