Chorizo is a yummy sausage that comes from Spain and other Latin American countries. It's usually made from ground pork, but can also be made from beef or chicken.
First, people mix the meat with some yummy spices, like paprika, garlic, and chili powder, to give it a special flavor. Then, they stuff the meat mixture into a sausage casing (which is like a long tube made from animal intestine) and let it dry.
After it's dried, people can cook chorizo in all sorts of ways! Some people like to slice it up and cook it on the stove until it's crispy, while others like to add it to soups or stews for extra flavor.
Chorizo is very popular because it's both tasty and versatile. Plus, it adds a little bit of cultural flair to any meal!
