Source: Julia Castro, 1890
Ingredients
- chancho (pork), very finely chopped
- tocino (fatback/bacon), chopped
- adobo seasoning (as in the preceding recipe): vinegar, ground garlic, pepper, ground cumin, chopped onion, powdered oregano, salt, and bay
Instructions
- Chop pork and tocino very finely.
- Marinate 24 hours in a wooden or terracotta vessel with the same seasoning as the adobo (vinegar, garlic, pepper, cumin, onion, oregano, salt, bay).
- Fill the casings and tie them off at intervals.
- Hang to dry in a shady, airy place away from the kitchen so no smoke smell reaches them.
