PORK AND CHIVO/LAMB CHORIZO
Submitted by Garry Vroegh
This is another 'leaner' version of the favorite Chorizo. In this recipe
Goat/lamb and nonfat dried milk replaces a substantial amount of the fat
found in most chorizo's which makes this one a 'healty CHOICE'. This sausage
is very lean but does not lack on flavor, and does not weeep a red chile
residue onto other foods as many other chorizos will do. For the homemaker
sausage makers adding ice keeps the sausage chilled and adds some moisture
so that it won't brown before it is fully cooked.
INGREDIENTS
2 Pounds of boneless porkbutt (cut into 1 inch cubes)
1 Pound of leg of Goat/lamb (cut into 1 inch cubes)
1 Pound of unsalted fatback (cut into 1 inch cubes)
1 Bunch of fresh cilantro (stemmed and chopped)
3/4 Tablespoon of chile molido
1/4 Cup of Paprika
1 1/2 Tablespoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch of ground cloves
5 teaspoons of salt
5 teaspoons nonfat dried milk
1 1/4 Cups of crushed ice
DIRECTIONS:
Grind the Pork, Goat/Lamb, fatback, and cilantro in a meat grinder
fitted with the 1/4-inch grinding plate.
Add all the spices, the salt, and dried milk.
Place the sausage in the bowl of an electric mixer. (If using a heavy-duty
mixer, use the paddle attachement)
Mix for one minute at low speed while adding the ice in small doses.
Mix for one minute at medium speed.
The sausage may be used in bulk form or formed into patties.
It may also be piped into casings and tied into links.
As you can see there are no funny types of named ingredients that my scare
you. This will make about 5 pounds of sausage.
