At the grocery store, look for Mexican chorizo (flavored with chile peppers and vinegar) or Spanish chorizo (smoked sausage flavored with garlic and smoked paprika). Check out this list of some of our very favorite Chirozo Recipes.

"I have always called these chorizo steamed clams 'Spanish Clams,' since it seems like there's some variation of this on every Spanish restaurant menu I've ever seen," says Chef John. "Sometimes they use beer, or white wine, or sherry; and many varieties of clams can be used. But the common denominator is the spicy, Spanish-style chorizo.
