SANCOCHO
Sancocho saved me. I was six years old when I first came to the mainland. I didn't speak a lick of English and I missed Puerto Rico terribly. I didn't understand what winter was or why the cold never seemed to go away. My mother would make this hearty stew and it would take me right back to my Abuela's house in San Juan. Every family has their version of sancocho, some making it with chicken and tripe, others with pork or goat. This one is FROM my Abuela Alicia, WHO LOVED making her sancocho with oxtail. I love making it with oxtail too, but feel free to use chuck or bone-in short ribs. The preparation is relatively simple, but the cooking time is a little over three hours. So be patient and enjoy the way it perfumes your entire household. Trust me; the wait is worth it.

Steps:
- To make the recaito, process the onion, bell pepper, frying pepper, garlic and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a blender until it resembles a very chunky sauce. Add the cilantro and blend until the sauce is combined and has a slightly chunky consistency, about 30 seconds. Set aside 1/2 cup of the recaito you've just made and freeze the rest for future preparations.
- Add the remaining olive oil to a very large, heavy-bottomed soup pot over medium-high heat. Dry the oxtails and add salt and pepper. Brown the oxtails in batches, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside on a plate or platter.
- Remove excess fat from the pot you browned the oxtails in, leaving about 2 tablespoons in the pot. Add the reserved 1/2 cup recaito and saute until fragrant. Add the adobo, oregano and bay leaves, then stir in the tomato sauce and saute for 1 minute. Add the red wine and chicken stock and bring to a boil. Taste the broth and add salt and pepper to taste, remembering that as the broth reduces it will become saltier; don't go overboard. Add the oxtails back to the pot. Lower the heat and cover the pot, leaving the lid slightly cracked. Simmer until the meat is beginning to become tender and fall apart, about 2 hours.
- Skim the fat off the top of the stew. Add the potatoes, yucca, plantains, pumpkin and corn. Top with more chicken stock, if necessary, to cover all the vegetables. Put the lid back on and simmer until the root vegetables are tender, 30 to 45 minutes.
- Taste the broth, season with salt and pepper and garnish with cilantro leaves. Serve with a side of rice if desired.
PUERTO RICAN SANCOCHO
This is my mom's Puerto Rican comfort soup. The mix of vegetables and herbs is an influence of the Spanish Canary Island ancestors of some Puerto Rican families. The soup was adjusted to the vegetables available in Puerto Rico by the addition of corn and pumpkin. In the Canary Islands of the 1700s, corn was only fed to farm animals! In Puerto Rico, some cooks now add ginger root, chile pepper, cumin, and other ingredients but I believe it destroys the original rich natural vegetable taste. Similar Spanish sancocho recipes were passed on to other Spanish colonies such as Columbia. Serve hot with bread to soak up the delicious flavor.

DOMINICAN CARIBBEAN SANCOCHO WITH 3 MEATS
I learned about sancocho in the Dominican Republic, so although there are also Puerto Rican and Colombian sancochos, this is a modified Dominican sancocho. According to the history, the traditonal sancocho came to the Caribbean at the time of colonization from the Canary Islands, and the number 7 of the very fancy and ideal sancocho is the number of the Canary Islands. Some people will insist that a real sancocho has to have 7 kinds of meat,, others have let it down to 5. The minimum is 3, beef, chicken and pork, though adding goat meat is great. A sancocho is considered special and for holidays and company. It does take a lot of time to do, and because of the number of ingredients it is impossible to make just a little bit. I have modified the recipe a bit, using beef broth instead of stew beef, and a small chorizo instead of a lot of pork. Traditionalists raise an eyebrow at this,, but.. then nod a reserved approval. Another must is to use the roots that are native to the area, such as yuca, malanga/ yautia, nyame, and, from among these I have chosen my favorites. Malanga coco has little purple flecks in the flesh; yuca long and carrot shaped with a brown peel; calabaza is a pumpkin like squash; chayote is a light green pear-shaped kind of squash. Usually a green plantain is used, but I like mine to ripen just a bit to having a hint of yellow. A sour liquid is added called naranja agria, or sour orange, and this helps food in the tropics to be keep. Meats are marinated in lemon juice. Since naranja agria is hard to find in my area, then some use alcaparrado, green olives and capers and some of the liquid from the bottle, or a bit of lemon juice can be used. Cilantro is considered an essential, although I don't really like cilantro and prefer something called recao, or cilantro ancho, which is a long leaf. Parsley has a kind of different flavor and so is not considered a good substitute for cilantro. To peel the malanga, yuca and calabaza we need a good knife and it is done by placing the object on a cutting board and then cutting down to the board,, not by holding in the hand and using a paring knife. The list of ingredients is very flexible in quantity, so the quantity that I put down is not meant to be mandatory but to just get an idea. The computer does not recognize malanga coco, or sazon packets, and put pumpkin and not calabaza. I've heard that many native foods from outside North America and Europe have not been entered into the computer. I hope Recipezaar adds them in. I'm having a bit of a problem with estimating the total amount for the nutritional content. I put 1 - 2 gallons because it is that flexible, but the computer put it at 1 gallon. I'm going to try to put 1 1/2 gallons because the computer did not add in a few of the ingredients which are substantial. I'm going to omit the 'salt & pepper' because the bouillion cubes add salt.

Steps:
- Wash and Cut up the chicken pieces into large bite size pieces. If you usually sear chicken before putting it in water to cook, then do so. Otherwise just put the chicken in a saucepan of water and bring it to a boil, and then lower the heat and let it simmer for about 1/2 hour while you peel and cut the roots.
- Peel and cut the malanga, yucca, plantain, chayote, and potato into large bite sized pieces. Peel and cut the calabaza or pumpkin type squash into 2 or 3x1" lengths. Cut the corn on the cob into 4 pieces each. Cut and chop garlic and onion. Cut celery into 1/2" slices crosswise. Celery leaves are optional.
- Skim off the stuff from the chicken broth. Then transfer chicken and broth to a large pot. Slice the chorizo crosswise into 1/2" rounds. Add the chorizo and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium.
- Add the larger roots and veggies, more water to cover, and then the smaller onion, garlic and celery, and then the seasonings. Bring to a boil and then lower to simmer for about 30 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. Continue to simmer until the potatoes test done by putting a fork through.
- Turn the heat off and serve,, one piece of corn cob with each serving.
SANCOCHO
Sancocho, a word often used as slang by Puerto Ricans to mean a big old mix of things, is a rustic stew eaten across the Caribbean and made with every imaginable combination of proteins and vegetables. My father cooked his with beef, corn and noodles; my mom with chicken breasts, lean pork and sweet plantains; my grandmother with beef, pork on the bone and yautia. As such, I've rarely used a recipe, so this one is based largely on observation, taste memory and what I like. Pretty much every ingredient can be swapped out, and it also makes for a sumptuous vegetarian dish without meat. Sancocho epitomizes the resilience of Puerto Rican people, as it is often prepared in times of crisis - such as after a hurricane - and made with whatever you have on hand.

Steps:
- Peel and cut the yuca, yautia, green plantain and yellow plantain into 1-inch pieces. Scrape out the seeds, then chop the calabaza, skin on, into 1-inch pieces. Put each ingredient in a separate bowl, adding water to cover vegetables in order to prevent them from turning brown while you prepare the rest of the soup.
- Husk the corn, then slice it into 2-inch-thick segments. Set aside.
- Season pork (or beef) and chicken with 1/2 tablespoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large pot over medium-high. Add the pork and brown on all sides for 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a clean, large bowl, then add the chicken to the same pot, and brown on both sides for another 5 minutes, adding oil as needed if the pot gets dry. Transfer with a slotted spoon to the same bowl as the pork.
- Reduce heat to medium and add sofrito to the pot, scraping up any browned bits of meat and incorporating them into the mix. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until liquid has evaporated and mixture darkens in color.
- Return the pork, chicken and any accumulated juices to the pot. Add the stock, bay leaves and remaining 1 tablespoon salt, and bring to a boil over high heat. Once simmering, reduce heat to medium-low and cook uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- To keep the vegetables from falling apart, add each one in order of firmness, cooking each for 5 minutes before adding the next. Begin with the yuca, then yautia, green plantain, yellow plantain, calabaza and corn, cooking the yuca for a total of 30 minutes and the corn for only 5 minutes.
- Add chorizo and stir well to incorporate. Cook for another 10 to 15 minutes over medium-low heat until meat and vegetables are tender and break easily with a fork. Because of all the starches and meat in this dish, this stew tends to be thick and rich. Some of the vegetables will fall apart, giving it a porridge consistency. This is a good thing.
- Adjust salt to taste, and serve with fresh bread or white rice on the side.
