Sausage

The wide selection of Spanish salchichón at Your Spanish Shop is made up of high-quality products with an irresistible flavor. We offer different types of salchichón, classified according to how they are made and the meat used in their preparation. This way, you can choose from various types:

• Iberian Salchichón: Made from Iberian pig breeds, which can be classified as cebo (grain-fed), cebo de campo (free-range), bellota (acorn-fed), or pata negra (purebred acorn-fed). Just like Iberian ham, Iberian salchichón originates from the Iberian Peninsula and may have 50%, 75%, or 100% pure Iberian breed—like the bellota variety. These come from regions such as Salamanca and Extremadura and are made with lean Iberian pork mixed with pork fat, pepper, oregano, and salt.

• Longaniza: Longaniza is a highly valued type of Spanish salchichón both in Spain and internationally. Originating from Barcelona, it is made mainly from ham meat of white pigs (non-Iberian breeds). Lean cuts are minced, kneaded, marinated for at least two days, and then stuffed. It is then cured for about 45 days, resulting in its distinctive aroma and flavor.
• Cular Salchichón: This flavorful Spanish salchichón is made exclusively with Iberian pork and its signature spices like pepper and oregano. It is named after the part of the pig’s intestine used to encase it—specifically, the final section of the large intestine. Its casing can vary in thickness from 45 to 70 millimeters, allowing for a slow curing process that gives it its characteristic and delicious flavor.
• Spanish Fuet: Fuet is another type of Spanish salchichón and a favorite among cured meat lovers. It is a cured sausage mainly made from lean pork, seasoned with black pepper and other spices. It is stuffed into the pig’s small intestine and then cured and dried, ready to be eaten sliced and raw.
• Montañés Salchichón: This variety is known for being made with a wider range of ingredients than other types. It includes pork meat, pork fat, powdered milk, corn maltodextrin, salt, soy protein, spices, preservatives, antioxidants, and colorings.
