Kransky sausages are lightly smoked, which answers the question, are Kransky sausages precooked? However, you still need to cook Kransky sausages before eating them. Swiss Deli Kransky is the only Kransky that can be consumed raw.
What is the difference between Kransky and Chorizo?
Kransky is a hot, smoked sausage without paprika or chilli; it's typically fried and eaten with bread, ketchup, or mustard. On the other hand, Spanish chorizo is prepared with cooked pork that has been dry-cured, commonly smoked, and spiced with paprika, garlic, salt, and occasionally chilli. Kransky is typically eaten whole, whereas chorizo is typically minced, fried, and added to scrambled eggs, rice, pasta, soups, or stews.
In Latin America, chorizo is prepared differently; it is eaten in Argentina, Uruguay, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, and Paraguay. In the northern region, beef is used to make chorizo, whereas pork and other ingredients are used to make it in the southern region.
