Sausages & Ham
Spanish love their chorizo and jamon, but there are many varieties of both. Morcilla, salchichón and lomo are a few sausages. Sausages are eaten with a piece of bread or added to soups, stews - cocidos or estofados. Ham comes in all qualities and prices and is eaten alone or used in recipes. Both of these are staples of Spanish cuisine, no matter how they are served!
