This chorizo salad has some cool elements and I am super excited to share them with you today. Just about\u00a0anything with chorizo in it is a winner for me. This salad is crunchy, fresh, herby and it involves possibly the best croutons you’ll ever have. The croutons are fried in the fat of the chorizo……..If you haven’t realised by now, I am not a food blogger who likes to get overly proud and ego struck about my recipes. But when that idea popped into my head, I thought it was pretty damn cool.<\/p>\n

Speaking of chorizo, here is a question I would love to get some insight on. Have you ever gone to a restaurant and ordered a dish with chorizo in it? Then, when the dish arrives the chorizo isn’t crispy, and you wish it was? I don’t mind, chorizo is great to just cut up and serve as an appetiser. Or when it just simply tossed through something like pasta or risotto. But personally, I think that chorizo is most satisfying to eat when it is all nice and crisped up. Is that just me or do you guys think the same thing? Just a thought that has been lingering in my mind.<\/p>\n

Halloumi cheese, the dairy to this dish. I was going to add mozzarella instead. But I wanted something with a bit more meatiness and firmness. Something that wouldn’t break, or absorb so easily. I definitely like halloumi cheese, but it is still just so new to me. And that squeakiness that it has when you chew it. I have never encountered this with any other ingredient. This just makes me want to experiment with it more to find another great use for it.<\/p>\n

I hope you all love this chorizo salad just as much as I did. I have said it before\u00a0and I will continue to say it. You guys are the frikin best! Thank you so much for reading through this post. Have a splendid day, and I will be sending another recipe your way shortly.<\/p>\n
