Extremaduran patatera blood sausage weighing between 250 and 400 grams. Patatera is a typical sausage from Extremadura, especially from the North. Specifically, it is a blood sausage, although its appearance and flavor are reminiscent of chorizo, which is presented in a horseshoe shape and made with cooked potato, lean pork, and Iberian pork fat. The reddish color is due to the addition of Pimentón de la Vera, which can be sweet or spicy. Extremaduran patatera blood sausage is a traditional Extremaduran product, historically made in family slaughterhouses.
