A slice of chorizo


I had some time to kill in Brighton’s North Laine a few weeks ago. I found myself in the Brighton Sausage Company’s shop, and after browsing for a few minutes, I came away with some merguez sausages.

They proved to be very tasty, and since then I’ve been back several times to try more of the Sausage Company’s wares. I particularly like the semi-cured chorizo.

This is cooking chorizo. It is delicious fried and served between soft billowing bread; it goes very nicely with an egg; plus it is a reliable shortcut to an excellent dinner. We use it to make paellasstews, and improvised cook-ups. Pig fat, we salute you.

Sussex credentials: Very good. Their pork comes from free-range Sussex pigs.
Price: I paid £2.50 for four semi-cured chorizo sausages.
