A savory blend of aromatic vegetables, herbs and spices, Sofrito (pronounced "so-free-toh") is the quintessential cooking base used in a myriad of Latin dishes. A good, aromatic Sofrito always manages to provide a distinctively Latin flavor. Depending on how much you add, it can add complexity and depth to a dish; or it can take center stage as a mouthwatering sauce. Perfect for traditional Spanish food like Spanish-style beans, you can also concoct your own recipes by adding Chulita's Famous Sofrito to sautéed vegetables, scrambled eggs, stir fry, or pasta dishes. Available in two varieties:
- Sofrito Verde is a bright green blend of herbs and vegetables. It is beautifully fragrant of culantro (recao) and garlic and just packed with flavor. This green sofrito is lovely with fish, poultry, or as a flavoring base for vegetable soups.
- Sofrito con Spices is an exquisite cooking base made with fresh herbs and hand-selected spices. With a strong backbone of cumin and paprika, this red sofrito is perfect for beef and pork. Sofrito con Spices is full of vibrant color and robust flavor, and offers an especially savory experience.
Varieties sold separately.
