"Because Rhode Island is home to the largest Portuguese-American population in the U.S., Portuguese flavors are also prominent — chouriço sausage and smoky paprika alongside extras like celery, onion, and sweet or hot peppers. Enjoy a fluffy, piquant example at Quito’s on the Bristol waterfront, order some frozen by the dozen from Iggy’s via Goldbelly, or attend Quahog Week in May to eat your fill." - Stasia Brewczynski
