HeyserLonganiza is chorizo’s lesser known cousin.They are similar sausages, often red with chiles, paprika or annatto (achiote), sometimes spicy, sometimes not, sometimes with vinegar, sometimes just some citrus juice. Always garlic. Lots of garlic.So as you can see, coming up with the One True Longaniza is a fool’s errand, because not only do many countries have their own versions, many countries’ versions vary from place to place within their own borders. If you want to read more on it,.
This longaniza recipe is from Mexico, from the state of Tabasco, to be specific.I’ve cobbled it together from several sources, ranging from Diana Kennedy’s books to a Spanish language cookbook focusing on Tabasco to the late David Sterling’s phenomenal book, which includes a smoked version from Valladolid.The presence of achiote paste and Seville orange juice makes this longanzia southern Mexican. They sound more exotic than they are.
You can buy both in most Latin markets all over the United States. Look for achiote rojo, and get the bigger block, and jugo de naranja agria. Both will be shelf stable. You can also and online. Or you can make a good Seville orange substitute by juicing an orange and two limes and mixing them.Oh, and you will notice that I use something called.

Form the longanisa into patties about 1/2 inch thick and 3 inches wide or place a palmful of longanisa on a piece of plastic wrap and roll it into a tight cylinder. You can also spred the longanisa in an even layer in the bottom of an oiled saute pan. Seasonings: 9 tbsp Sugar. 1 tbsp Paprika powder. 4 tbsp Anisado wine. 2 tbsp Garlic, chopped. 1/2 tbsp Black pepper, ground. 1/4 tsp Smoke flavor. Food color as desired. 1/2 tsp Beef aroma. 1/2 tsp Meaty ginisa. 1 tsp BF blend (binder/filler).
Of course, you can add hot chiles if you want. I like these grilled and served alongside various other Mexican grilled things, like flank steak. Uncased, longaniza makes a spectacular filling for, or mixed with eggs and stale tortillas for chilaquiles.Really longaniza can be used in any way you’d use regular chorizo. And if you want to.
