Botifarra

Botifarra is a cherished sausage in Catalan cuisine, with origins that may date back to ancient Roman or Italian recipes. There are several varieties of botifarra, including raw, black, and white, as well as versions that incorporate ingredients such as egg or rice. This versatile sausage is a staple in traditional Catalan dishes like "escudella i carn d'olla" and "botifarra amb seques."

In Latin America, the sausage is known as butifarra, and its preparation and accompaniments vary in different countries such as Colombia, Argentina, and Paraguay. Interestingly, in Peruvian cuisine, "butifarra" refers to a type of ham sandwich, which is quite different from the sausage.

Botifarra enjoys popularity in many Latin American countries, including El Salvador, Bolivia, and Mexico, each bringing its unique twist to this classic sausage.
