Recipes FAQ

What is Portuguese sausage?

Portuguese sausage, also known as linguica, is a type of smoked sausage made with pork and paprika. It has a slightly spicy and smoky flavor and is commonly used in Portuguese cuisine.

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure to cook the Portuguese sausage until browned before removing it from the skillet or wok. This will give it a nice crispy texture.
  • You can use leftover rice for this recipe, or you can cook fresh rice and let it cool before using it in the dish.
  • Stir-fry the vegetables until they are tender but still slightly crisp. This will give them a nice texture and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Make sure to season the dish with salt and pepper to taste. The soy sauce already adds some saltiness to the dish, so adjust accordingly.
