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.

We like these over rice. But they 'd be great all by themselves. Lots of black beans, spices, a splash of balsamic vinegar and other good things are plopped into a pot and simmered until it smells so good, you can 't stand it.
