Thanks everyone, and yes @irishheart, that is one head of garlic… the entire head.

Just to be sure….that’s a whole entire head of garlic?? At least 10-12 cloves?

Thanks….Cindy

Mexican recipes sometimes call for Sofrito, but haven’t been able to find it at the grocery store in a jar or can. This sounds better anyway; I definitely want to give this a try.

I saw a recipe for Sofrito last year in an Everyday Food magazine and ended up making and freezing a bunch of the stuff to make Black Bean Soup and other goodies all winter. It was a cooked version,though, and only the Cilantro went in raw. It was even great while still warm as a dip for tortilla chips, too! Now that I’m reminded of it, I’ll have to try your version this year!

Thanks for the recipe. There are so many recipes that just don’t work without Sofrito.

Hey, thanks! I needed this. I bought one of those sofritos in a jar at the Mexican market, and it was awful. I put it on my list of things NOT to buy in a jar – with Miracle Whip and pureed meat. Can’t wait to give this one a try.
