[Sca-cooks] Migas not huevos rancheros

In my experience both from Mexican and Argentinian/Uruguayan recipes of
sausage we talk about different kinds of sausagea: the Spanish sausages are
dry and hang in rooms for several months. The Mexican and Rio de la Plata
sausages are greasier and fresh, they should be consumed at once. If they
are dry are de called longaniza and remind of the Italian salami.
