I ordered this item for Spanish paella and it shipped quickly and met expectations for my dish. This chorizo added a rich savory and slightly spicy dimension which complimented the saffron. The texture is different from Mexican chorizo and is slightly chewy. This chorizo also gives a garlicky and smoky aroma! Delicious!

Really good really authentic tastes great

Great flavor! We'll packaged. Works well in recipes.

For the record, I am reviewing: Chorizo Autentico Mild by Palacios. Imported from Spain. 7.9 OunceFirst, if you have ever used the Sweet Smoked Spanish Paprika (imported kind), then you know how strong of a flavor these have. They use that paprika to make this sausage and let me tell you they use a lot. I used this in Jambalaya and in Paella and when I used it the first time I cut slices about a quarter of an inch thick to add to the jambalaya and that was way too thick. I highly recommend that you almost shave these into pepperoni style cuts of meat, and do not use a lot, the taste is overpowering in your dish as the flavor is so strong. I do love it, but you have to get the right amount. I purchased the two pack, and believe me those two are going to last me a year. The last dish I made i uses a total of 10 thin slices and it was just right, gave the rice the best flavor and was not overpowering of the other flavors that I wanted to present in the dish. I have wrapped the unused portion and put it in the freezer and expect it will last forever since it is a dried sausage. Just to that you know, I think the MILD refers to the heat level not the spice level because the amount of spices in this sausage is very high, you can tell by the color when you cut it that it is loaded with spices.

This is how it came. It was half moldy and I can’t return it. Very disappointed!

First off I'm not Spanish so don't really know what should be good Spanish Chorizo but I know good sausage. Where I live in eastern US their are a lot of speciality butchers that produce some great product. Anyways with this [ham], it was well made, very dense and good flavor but didn't blow me away. A good hard salami from around here, sorry, beats it.Now the mild chorizo I got at the same time I tried dicing some up, fry in a pan with scrambled eggs, boy was that a mistake, so bitter, too much paprika in this chorizo. I quess you have to use this in a dish with rice too absorb some of the bitterness.
