Sofrito Cubano Recipes
SOFRITO CUBANO
Sofrito is the base of many typically Cuban recipes. It is the aromatic preparation of fresh vegetables and herbs lightly fried together. It isn't the flavor itself but about building layers of flavor. In our home in Cuba, they used to chop all the ingredients(with exception of the bay leaf) in a blender and store in a jar with olive oil on the top. It lasts up to a week, and would be doled out as needed and then the bay leaf would be added; sautéed and simmered as directed. The secret to a good sofrito is to let it simmer a while so that all the tastes can marry. Many times when there was no saffron to add we would use "bijol" which can be found in Latin grocery stores or where Goya spices are sold.

CARIBBEAN-STYLE SOFRITO
Common in Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic, sofrito is a blend of herbs and vegetables used in Afro-Latin/Caribbean cooking to season rice, bean, and meat dishes. It has no salt, and appeals to those unfamiliar with Caribbean food because of its authentic taste. The ingredient is vegetarian friendly and can be adapted to accommodate vegans. Adapt the ingredient amounts to suit your personal tastes.
