      <content>Will look them up. I found Goya bottled sofrito or rather recaito but didn't want something with MSG in it. Hope Cousins Market will have different options. </content>

      <content>The ingredients to make your own sofrito can be found in any grocery store. If you are making Puerto Rican sofrito, it is a puree of garlic, onions, peppers, tomato, cilantro that is not cooked before use. If you are making sofrito for paella it is a cooked paste of garlic, onions, tomato and paprika.  I'm sure there are as many types of sofrito as there are Spanish cuisines and individual cooks.</content>

      <content>Thanks for your reply. I know that the garlic, onions, peppers, tomato and cilantro cover the basic flavors and have made sofrito with just that but I really wanted to try one with the traditional ajices dulces and culantro which I've never had. So was trying to find out where I could find those </content>
