Homemade Chorizo Ingredients

1 lb Ground pork	1 tb (maybe two) chili powder. (I
2 tb Oil	Salt and freshly ground
2 tb Red wine vinegar	1/4 ts Finely diced and seeded
1/2 ts Dried oregano	1/4 c Water
1 ts Dried basil	1/2 c Finely diced carrot
1 ts Dried thyme	1/2 c Diced celery
1/4 ts Ground cloves	1/4 c Diced onion
1 pn Or two of ground nutmeg

Instructions for Homemade Chorizo

1. Heat the oil in saute pan or skillet over medium heat. 2. Add the ground pork and saute until it turns brown, breaking up any lumps. 3. Add the vinegar, spices, chile and water. Cook for about 15 minutes. 4. Strain off as much fat as possible and let the sausage cool. If the sausage seems to have too much liquid...then put a strainer over a large pan and drain, covered overnight. Thats it. I dont put it in casings......too much work and besides I use it right away or just freeze the bulk I dont use. Some folk put in garlic and a little cinnamon, but you can decide what you want to do after you try this. Add more of any of the spices that sound good to you and then its your own recipe.
