Chorizo recipes guaranteed to make the month water.
This is a classic tapas dish and part of a collection of chorizo recipes, can be seen in many tapas restaurants in the UK. However, it is not always made properly. The secret to a tasty red wine chorizo is to reduce the red wine until it becomes syrupy, adding a generous dollop of honey, so the chorizo gets coated in a lovely sweet red wine syrup. It is also the ideal tapas recipe for a dinner party because you can prepare it in advance, is easy to serve and it will be a popular dish with your guests. Don’t forget to serve it with some wooden skewers or toothpicks for a more authentic Spanish feel. Olé!
