linguica is smoked and cooked but linguica is only partially cooked.
When you eat or serve linguica the linguica still needs cooked further before eating it or serving it.
Don't eat the linguica without further cooking it.
Since the linguica is partially cooked it only needs a short amount of time to cook the linguica.
The linguica is a Portuguese sausage that is made from pork that is narrower and milder than Chouriço and it comes in either in long rope form, loaf form or as small sausages (the long rope is traditional.)
Cooking the linguica takes between 8 to 10 minutes in the skillet while cooking the linguica in the oven takes around 25 to 30 minutes.
