Goya Recaito is the secret weapon of countless Caribbean cooks, a vibrant and flavorful cooking base that adds depth and complexity to any dish. This 8 oz (103591 g) jar is packed with a blend of cilantro, culantro, green peppers, onions, and garlic, all carefully blended to create a rich and aromatic paste. Unlike Sofrito, Recaito relies heavily on cilantro and culantro, providing a distinctively fresh and herbaceous flavor profile that's characteristic of many Caribbean cuisines. It's the perfect shortcut to authentic flavor, saving you time and effort in the kitchen.
Use Goya Recaito as a base for stews, soups, rice dishes, and beans. Simply sauté a spoonful or two in a little oil before adding your other ingredients. It's also great for marinating meats and poultry, adding a burst of flavor that will make your dishes sing. For a classic Caribbean dish, try using Recaito to season your arroz con gandules (rice with pigeon peas) or your habichuelas guisadas (stewed beans). It's also a key ingredient in many sofrito recipes, adding an extra layer of herbaceousness.
