Thawing:
Remove from the fridge or the freezer and thaw for a few minutes.
No cooking or heating needed.
Best enjoyed at room temperature to allow the full flavors and aromas to come forth.
Serving Ideas:
Solo: Enjoy the chorizo on its own, accompanied by good quality bread. A glass of white wine complements it well.
Tapas Platter: Chorizo Iberico is a star ingredient on a tapas platter. Pair it with other cured meats like jamón Ibérico (Iberian ham), manchego cheese, olives, and Marcona almonds.
Simple Appetizer: Drape slices of chorizo over a bed of melon or grapes for a sweet and savory contrast.
Tips: For an extra touch, try rubbing toasted bread with tomato before adding the chorizo slices.
Wine Pairing: A Rioja Crianza or other full-bodied red wine pairs well with the richness of the chorizo.
Iberico pork, salt, spices, and seasonings.
