Portuguese Chouriço Buns Recipe (Pãezinhos de Chouriço)
Authentic Portuguese chouriço buns are a staple snack featuring a simple, rustic yeast dough wrapped around smoky slices of sausage. This homemade pão com chouriço recipe uses a slow-rise method to develop flavor before baking into spicy sausage bread rolls with a characteristic scored top. The unique value of this version is the thin-slice layering technique that ensures savory oils infuse every bite of the bread.
