Spicy, garlicky and tangy Mexican-style fresh chorizo sausage is approximated by mixing ground pork with seasonings. Use the mixture right away in recipes calling for bulk chorizo or chorizo removed from the casing, or cover and refrigerate up to 24 hours. The recipe doubles easily and surplus can be frozen; for easy thawing, shape the mixture into patties, wrap in plastic and freeze for up to a month.
