Goan sausages, also known as chorizo or chouriço, are a signature type of sausage originating in Goa. It is a well-known Goan sausage influenced by the Portuguese and is a cousin of the Spanish chorizo. It is a fusion of Portuguese and Indian flavours, reflecting Goa's rich culinary history. This sausage is unique in that it is made with diced pork meat rather than minced meat which make it different from your regular sausage. The pork is seasoned in homemade freshly ground spices, marinated in vinegar and filled in natural hog casings to ferment that brings you the deep aromatic flavours. They have a distinctive, rich exotic flavour and are known for their spicy and tangy taste to remember! It is handcrafted right here in Aotearoa and proudly shows our labour of love in the sausage. Give it a go and try this very special Goan Portuguese style sausage!
