1 |
Chop the onion and cubanelle or italian peppers in the work bowl of a food processor until coarsely chopped. With the motor running, add remaining ingredients one at a time and process until smooth. The sofrito will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. |
2 |
May freeze sofrito in 1/2 cup batches in sealable plastic bags. Add straight from freezer to the pan. |
3 |
If ajicitos or culantro are not available, up the cilantro (to 1 1/2 bunches), and add a pinch of cayenne pepper. Culantro is not cilantro. Culantro is like cilantro times ten. |
