Easy Authentic Homemade Sofrito

So much better than the store bought ones, this recipe will add that extra something something to all your dinners.

Blend 3 green bell peppers, 1 red bell peppers, 2 onions, 1 whole head of garlic cloves, and a bunch of cilantro or culantro... 

....and that's it!


Blend it all until it's like chunky salsa, not completely liquified.
You can freeze extras of this for a longgg time, and use it in almost everything.
Freezing in a convenient ice cube tray is the true puerto rican way, for 1 tbsp of sofrito use 1 ice cube.
