The secret to making delicious potato chorizo soup is the quality of the chorizo.

Good quality chorizo doesn’t have to be expensive. It can be bought at your local supermarket.

How to find good quality chorizo?

When purchasing chorizo, make sure you are buying chorizo with clean ingredients.

Avoid chorizo that contains artificial ingredients and are loaded with chemicals.

You will find these chorizos next to the pizza toppings. To help you more, if the chorizos look like Lunchables than chorizo, then stay away from it.

What can you add to this soup besides chorizo and potatoes?

To make this soup, I use chorizo, onions, and potatoes as the base. You can also add some cooked bacon or some greens (like spinach) to mix it up a bit and make it your own.

Can you free this Spanish Chorizo and Potato Soup?

I wouldn’t recommend it and the reason why is because of the potatoes. You see, potatoes do not freeze well. What will happen is that when it starts defrosting, it will break apart.

Can you saute the onions with wine?

You can also add around 1/4 cup of wine to the onions while they are getting cooked.

That helps them caramelize a bit and bring out even more flavors. It’s definitely not the traditional way of doing it, but it’s a delicious variation!
