METHOD
Mix the dry ingredients first, then the wet ingredients with 2 cups (500 ml) water separately. Next, combine them by stirring with a wooden spoon and then kneading thoroughly by hand.
Divide the dough into eight equal parts. Form each piece into a sausage by hand and wrap tightly in an 8 x 8-inch (20 x 20-cm) sheet of plastic wrap. Tie the ends together.
Steam the sausages for 30 minutes in a steamer. Allow to cool completely. Take off the plastic wrap.
Brush the sausages with olive oil and grill them for 4 to 5 minutes on each side over direct heat.

RECIPE NOTES
Padrón peppers from Spain are a tasty accompaniment to our chorizo. Brush the peppers with olive oil and roast in a cast-iron skillet or on a griddle. Garnish with coarse sea salt.
