Puerto Rican Sofrito

The secret to any successful Puerto Rican dish is having the perfect sofrito recipe. Puerto Rican sofrito is a mixture of peppers, onions, garlic and cilantro, and the base ingredient in almost every Latin dish you’ll ever try. Come see how my family makes it!

The secret to any successful Puerto Rican dish is having the perfect sofrito recipe. Puerto Rican sofrito is a mixture of peppers, onions, garlic and cilantro, and the base ingredient in almost every Latin dish you’ll ever try. Come see how my family makes it! #sofrito #puertoricanfood #saucesI’m so excited to share this recipe for Puerto Rican sofrito with you today. I’ve been waiting my whole life for this recipe!

Ok, that might be a teeny bit of an exaggeration but it was totally necessary for you to understand how very important learning this recipe was for me.

Let me give you a little background information as to why.

If you’re new to the Lake Life State of Mind community, you might not be aware that I’m half Puerto Rican. Wondering what the other half is? Jewish if you can believe that! I talk about this interesting combo and share another delicious recipe in this post, Mandarin Orange Chicken Salad Sandwiches.

My parents divorced when I was very young. I ended up moving from New York to Florida with my mom when I was five years old. My mom’s side of the family all migrated down to Florida, while my dad and his family stayed primarily up north.

At the age of seven, I started making yearly trips to see my dad in New York. One of the main highlights of every trip was getting to eat my grandma’s rice and red beans. To this day, there’s not a single person who can make Puerto Rican dishes like she did. I’m sure everyone feels that way about their grandma’s recipes.

I stood in the kitchen and watched her make some of these Puerto Rican dishes multiple times, but I could never replicate them. I’m sure many of you can relate when I say that my grandma never followed a recipe. She’d been making beans since she was 10 and it was second nature to her. She’d know how much water to add, how much sofrito, etc. just by looking in the pan.

I never knew why until I got older, but all my grandma’s recipes seemed to have the same distinctive flavor to them. She would make Italian spaghetti sauce and pasta but it never tasted anything like the traditional Italian version we are all used.

Why did every dish taste similar? I now know it’s because she started almost all her recipes with sofrito!

Sofrito is the base of so many Hispanic dishes. It is used in the same way that Italians saute garlic and onions in olive oil at the start of any dish. Or the way Cajun cooking starts with sauteing a holy trinity of chopped bell peppers, onions, and celery.

Sofrito can be purchased at the grocery store but it doesn’t hold a candle to the fresh stuff! I’m telling you this from experience since I’ve tried using it before. If you know what REAL Puerto Rican food tastes like, the store-bought sofrito just doesn’t compare.

Sadly, my grandma has since passed away and I never learned the recipe for sofrito from her. Lucky for me, however, my grandma had 9 children and the recipe has lived on!

My Titi Pricilla came to visit us at the lake last week and I begged her to make sofrito with me so I could see how to do it. We made a huge batch of sofrito and now I have a freezer full of it. I was also able to take pictures and make notes along the way. I haven’t tried making it on my own quite yet, but I’m hoping I’ll do a little better this time around.

Before I teach you how to make sofrito, I want to warn you that this recipe is more of a guideline and not a set-in-stone thing. My titi actually uses this recipe from Latin Mom Meals as a guideline for her sofrito. She says the recipe is very similar to our family’s sofrito. I’m in love with this website, by the way, and can’t wait to put my homemade sofrito to good use with some of her recipes.

So what do I need to make Puerto Rican Sofrito?

1 green bell pepper (seeded and roughly chopped), 1 red bell pepper (seeded and roughly chopped), 1 package of aji dulce peppers** (seeded and roughly chopped), 3 Cubanelle peppers (seeded and roughly chopped), 3 Spanish onions (roughly chopped), 1/2 cup of garlic cloves, 1 bunch of cilantro, 1 bunch of recao/culantro**, ¼ cup olive oil

This recipe couldn’t be any easier because your food processor or blender does all the work. The hardest part of this recipe is seeding and chopping all the ingredients.

You can tear the cilantro and recao/culantro, but all the other ingredients will need to be chopped. Remember that a rough chop is fine since the blades of the food processor or blender will be doing most of the work for you.

Cilantro and Culantro are two different ingredients.

This is cilantro. It’s available at pretty much every grocery store.

Culantro/Recao smells just like cilantro but looks like this.

Come see how my family makes it! #sofrito #puertoricanfood #saucesIt’s also about 10 times stronger than cilantro. You can read about the differences, here.

You won’t be able to find this in a regular supermarket. You’ll want to check for it in a Latin or Asian market instead. If you can’t find it, use **2 bunches of cilantro. This is what my titi has to do since she can’t find it where she lives in Georgia.

Cubanelles are a type of sweet peppers and can be found in your regular grocery store. We found them in red and green this time, but I normally see them just in the green variety.

You’ll want to check out your Latin or Asian market for these peppers as well. It’s said that these peppers are what really make the taste of the sofrito come alive. If you can find them, awesome! If not, **substitute one yellow bell pepper.

Chop your Spanish onions.

We were able to find peeled garlic cloves which made my titi super excited!

Once everything is chopped and ready to go, you can start loading up your food processor or blender. You’ll want to do this in batches.

Start by tearing a little bit of the cilantro and recao/culantro and placing them in the food processor. Add a little of each of the other ingredients as well.

Another great tip for freezing extras is to use ice cube trays. Make sure to buy ice cube trays specifically for your sofrito because the aromas of the ingredients will penetrate through them and you won’t be able to use them for ice anymore.

Once the sofrito freezes, pop out the little cubes.

Place them in a ziploc bag. These tiny cubes are perfect for a small batch of arroz con gandules or red beans.

And there you have it! Puerto Rican sofrito is a cinch to make but makes a world of difference when it comes to the flavor of your food. I hope I’ve convinced you to try this for yourself! Geez, I’ve even made myself hungry. Enjoy!

    What a beautiful history you have of this recipe! I can’t wait to make it. Like you, the recipes our grandmothers made–are the best. For me, part of it was that I loved my grandmothers so much–and they loved to cook! You are lucky that your grandmother had 9 siblings so the recipe was not lost. Most of my grandmother’s recipes were lost–so sad. And I’m excited for your trip to Puerto Rico–such a fun “surprise” for your family! Have a fabulous time!

      Thank you so much for your comments, Sharlene. I agree that the recipes become even more special when they are connected to memories of ones you love dearly. So sorry most of your grandmothers’ recipes were lost. I only have a few from mine but I cherish them so much. <3

      Hi there! Great question about the aji peppers. My package had roughly 15 – 20 tiny aji peppers inside and I used all of them. Hope that helps.

      I found mine at a grocery store called, Bravo. If you can’t find them, replace them with yellow bell peppers.

    About how much of this would you use in each recipe? I don’t have any ice cube trays and trying to figure out how much to freeze per bag. Maybe a 1/4 cup? Thank you.

    • lakelifestateofmind@gmail.com says

      March 30, 2020 at 11:23 pm

      Hi Brandee! I would say each ice cube in my tray is around 2 tablespoons or so. A 1/4 of a cup is 4 tablespoons so I would say anywhere between 2 to 4 tablespoons would be fine to freeze. Hope this helps 💗

    This is the real PR sofrito. A lot of people are using bell pepper instead of cubanelles and white onion instead of yellow or Spanish onion. The only difference is that in the past we used to grind it. You have beautifully explained and photographed this authentic sofrito recipe. Keep your good job spreading traditional authentic recipes. God bless

      My family uses cubanelle, Spanish onions, garlic, cilantrillo, cilantro (we call it also recao). We start every dish putting a little oil in the pan and frying (or sofreir) the sofrito prior to adding any other ingredient.

        Yes! The flavor is amazing in pretty much everything. My grandma would even put it in her sauce for lasagna.

Can you spot the pink in this photo?! It’s hard to believe that Valentine’s Day is one month from today. Starting tomorrow, my feed is going to be taken over by hearts, pink, and all things love. For today, I’m just giving you a little tease. I purposely took this picture with my back to my mantle because it’s about to get a Valentine’s Day update and I want it to be a surprise.🥰

“Memories at the lake last a lifetime”...i.e. Like when Zach recently went to put the cover on the boat and his phone fell out of his pocket into the water. Or when Patrick thought he was hitting the brake on his friend’s jet ski and it took off like a 🚀 causing chaos. Or when we almost sank our pontoon in the middle of the lake.🤣🤣🤣

What’s your favorite day of the week? If I had to pick one I’d say it’s WEDNESDAY. Wednesdays in the Hernandez household are designated as family days...no ifs, ands, or buts about it.😉
.
With Patrick working crazy hours, Wednesdays are actually the only consistent day of the week for the three of us to be together.  We do our best to take advantage of it as much as we can! Sometimes we have big plans, but more often we just hang out doing errands together and maybe grab lunch or dinner at a restaurant. It’s most definitely more about the time spent for us than finding something epic to do each and every Wednesday.❤️
.
Today’s activities included hair cuts for the guys, a comic book run for Zach, lunch, a trip to Aldi’s, and some sunset lake portraits. The perfect day! Swipe if you want to see the “real” Hernandez clan acting like the crazy family we are during our lake portraits!🤪

If you don’t do so already, I encourage you to join me in being more intentional with spending time with your family. Pick a day or time that works for everyone and commit to you all just being together. I can assure you it will quickly become your favorite day of the week too!🥰

What’s your favorite day of the week? If I had to pick one I’d say it’s WEDNESDAY. Wednesdays in the Hernandez household are designated as family days...no ifs, ands, or buts about it.😉

With Patrick working crazy hours, Wednesdays are actually the only consistent day of the week for the three of us to be together. We do our best to take advantage of it as much as we can! Sometimes we have big plans, but more often we just hang out doing errands together and maybe grab lunch or dinner at a restaurant. It’s most definitely more about the time spent for us than finding something epic to do each and every Wednesday.❤️
