Ingredientes de la fabada
Soy un nuevo miembro del Forum, asturiano de nacimiento (Aviles) que vive en Oregon. Despues de anos he decidido preparar una fabada y una amiga me ha traido fabes de Asturias. No se como hacer para conseguir los ingredientes del compango. La idea de hacer el chorizo yo mismo parece interesante (puede alguien compartir la receta para hacerlos?).
Welcome to Asturianus, fherran. I'll let Bob refer you to a thread where he explains how to make home-made, home-smoked chourizos. Making fabada is actually not that difficult if you have the right ingredients. But you'll definitely need the compangu to flavor it correctly:
1. chourizo
2. morciella
3. llacon
People add a couple of bayleaves, a garlic clove and half an onion as well. The secret is in the very, very slow cooking. Keep the burner down to its lowest point and cook for 2-3 hours and practice the art of 'scaring the beans' by shaking the pot once in a while. If the burner is on too high, the fabes could break. The whole point of a fabada is to keep the beans intact, but make them as soft as butter.

En general, you'll have trouble finding morcilla in the US, but La Tienda sells it. The affiliate link for La Tienda (which sells Asturian foods, books, paella supplies, fans, botas, ceramics, glass, tiles, perfumes, gifts, etc.) is:

I like La Tienda for buying fabes (very expensive but worth every penny), chorizos (if you don't make your own) and morcilla and recommend them highly, but there are vendors on the west coast as well, such as

Is is right. Don't stir the fabes (shaking the pan is OK), but do be sure that they are always just covered with water.
