EASY SOFRITO

"This is the one indispensable, universal, un-live-withoutable recipe. Having said that, it is incredibly easy to make with ingredients you can find at the supermarket. And if you can't find all the ingredients I list below see the note that follows for a very simple fix. What sofrito does is add freshness, herbal notes and zing to dishes-you can do that with the onion, garlic, bell pepper, cilantro and tomato alone. In my house, sofrito makes its way into everything from yellow rice, black bean soup, sauce for spaghetti and meatballs to braised chicken and sautéed shrimp. Not only that, it freezes beautifully, so in about In 10 minutes you can make enough sofrito to flavor a dozen dishes. I'm telling you, this stuff does everything but make the beds. You will change the way you cook. I guarantee it." ----Daisy Martinez

Steps:

  • Chop the onion and cubanelle or Italian peppers in the work bowl of a food processor until coarsely chopped.
  • With the motor running, add the remaining ingredients one at a time and process until smooth.
  • The sofrito will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. It also freezes beautifully.
  • *If you can't find ajices dulces or culantro, don't sweat. Up the amount of cilantro to 1 ½ bunches.

2 medium Spanish onions, cut into large chunks
3 -4 italian frying bell peppers or 3 -4 cubanelle peppers
16 -20 garlic cloves, peeled
1 bunch fresh cilantro, washed
4 leaves culantro or 4 leaves fresh cilantro
3 -4 ripe plum tomatoes, cored and cut into chunks
7 -10 cachucha bell peppers (Ajicitos dulces)
1 large red bell pepper, cored, seeded and cut into large chunks

SOFRITO

Sofrito is the base for most Puerto Rican dishes, and this one is better than store bought (difficult to find in the stores in the Western United States). This can be added to beans, rice, soups, stews, you name it.
