Mexican Sausage (Chorizo)

6 ounces chiles guajillos
2/3 cup vinegar
5 garlic cloves, peeled
2 pounds ground pork
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

Wipe the chiles clean. Remove stems, then cut lengthwise. Remove seeds, and place in a small bowl. Cover with hot water and let sit for 30 minutes. Discard water and place the chiles in a blender jar. Add the vinegar and garlic cloves and purée until smooth; set aside.

Place the pork in a large bowl. Add the paprika, oregano, salt, cumin, coriander, pepper, and allspice. Mix well. Add the chili sauce and combine well. Stuff into casings, or fry as patties.
