Chorizo Preparation Method
Prepare the Meat Mixture
Cut the pork shoulder and fatback into small cubes. Combine the pork with all the spices, garlic, and white wine in a large mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly until the meat is evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Stuff the Casings
Rinse the hog casings in cold water and soak them in water for about 30 minutes. Fit a sausage stuffer with the casing and fill it with the meat mixture, being careful not to overstuff. Tie off the ends securely.
Dry Aging Process
Hang the sausages in a cool, dry place with good air circulation (ideally around 15°C and 75% humidity) for about 3-6 weeks. Check regularly for any signs of spoilage.
Final Steps
Once dry aged to your preference, remove the sausages from the hanging area and slice to serve. Enjoy your homemade dry-aged chorizo!
