Pão com Chouriço Receita / Chouriço Bread Recipe
Growing up in New Jersey, one of my aunts would make a ton of Chouriço bread every year, and hand it out to the family. It was delicious, and homemade. I’m not the most patient baker in the world, so I prefer not to make dough from scratch. I stumbled upon someone’s idea of using Pizza Dough in place of making Bread Dough, and tried it out! Of course, its not the original rustic bread from the mainland, but this recipe still manages to knock it out of the park!
