Sofrito is an aromatic and savory, and has its origins in Spanish cuisine. It typically consists of onions sautéed in oil with ingredients like garlic, bell, hot and/or sweet peppers, tomatoes (in some variations), and herbs such as cilantro, coriander and oregano. Depending on the ingredient variation sofritos can be green or red and some are tangier (due to the use of vinegar or white wine).

This delicious and flavorful mixture can be used as a foundation for everything from stews and soups to rice or vegetable dishes. You can also use it to add some flair to your steaks, eggs or even eat it like salsa with some chips.
