Can chorizo be eaten without cooking it?
It depends on the type of Chorizo. European chorizo can be dried/cured and can be eaten as is, but chorizo that is not dried or cured must be cooked. I’ve never had dried chorizo though, here in Southern California, the only chorizo I commonly see at hispanic markets is a soft uncooked beef chorizo that’s commonly mixed in with scrambled eggs or potatoes since it melts and combines very well.
