How to make Pork Chorizo from scratch | Authentic Mexican Chorizo Recipe | Villa Cocina

#mexicanfood #villacocina #tacos #porkchorizo
Chorizo is a staple in Mexico, it is basically a type of sausage we have made with ingredients used daily in a Mexican kitchen. The ground meat is mixed in with some fat, seasoned with dried peppers, spices, herbs and some vinegar. Try the cooked chorizo in tacos and fall in love instantly, a second bite will have you coming back for more.

📹 Special thanks to my husband Nelson(Cameraman) for always giving his 100% and enjoying what he does.
