Julián Del Águila Iberian Bellota Chorizo Cular

What does “cular” mean in this Spanish cured chorizo?

Well, it refers specifically to the casing used to stuff the chorizo ingredients. This corresponds to the last section of the pig’s intestine. Its thickness can vary between 45 and 70 mm. The larger diameter of the sausage makes it necessary to use a different drying and maturation process than other types of chorizo and salami, resulting in pieces that usually weigh around 850 grams. This casing is usually edible in Spanish charcuterie.

This chorizo cular is made with lean pork and spices, all stuffed into natural casings. Its curing process is slow and prolonged (3 to 4 months), which gives it a delicious balance of texture, flavour and aroma.

The “Extra” in Spanish charcuterie refers to higher quality ingredients or processes used such as longer curing time or methods used.
