Linguiça is a type of sausage typical from Portugal and brought to Brazil during colonial times. Today linguiça is the most adored sausage in Brazil, served in churrascarías (our barbecue restaurants), as hors d’oeuvres and in dishes such as feijoada, farofa, soups and braises. The robust sausage is made from cured pork meat and flavored with onion, garlic and condiments. When cooking linguiça, never poke the link, you don’t want any fat to escape, as this is what makes the linguiça taste so moist and tender in the centre. If you can’t find it, you can use chorizo or fresh sausage as well.
