Linguiça
Linguiça is a cured sausage made with pork seasoned with locally produced pepper and various spices, stuffed into natural, thin casings, which are then tied at intervals of 30–40 centimetres. These sausages are separated and given a circular shape. They are then hung individually in the smokehouse and, when ready, have a horseshoe shape and a unique aroma, colour and flavour.
For those outside the Alentejo region, this product is better known as "Chouriço". However, the chouriço, which we also produce, differs mainly in that blood is used in its production, giving it a dark colour and a strong flavour.
It can be served raw or roasted and is also widely used in stews. The characteristics of our linguiça will give your dish a unique flavour.
After receiving the product at home, remove it from its packaging and store it in a cool, dry place.
Ingredients: Pork, pepper paste, garlic paste, salt, spices, E-250, E-301, E-450, E451, E-452, E-621. Contains colourings and preservatives.
