Its translation comes from the Spanish verb “to season” and this spice blend doesn’t miss! A common ingredient used in Puerto Rican dishes, this blend of garlic, oregano, black pepper often gets its signature reddish-orange hue from annatto. I wanted to amp up these flavors by adding a smoky element which pairs well with any kind of protein as a rub or marinade or seasoning in various rice dishes, soups, and stews.

Inspired by Puerto Rico

"Puerto Rican cuisine is a beautiful combination of West African, Spanish, and indigenous Taíno foods and cooking methods; and learning more about each of these influences has inherently shaped and strengthened my connection to my ancestors in the kitchen. Witnessing the impact that these three cultures and cuisines have had throughout the diaspora has taught me that we simply share more in common than one would think. I hope that using this blend in your kitchen will not only transport you to La Isla Bonita but help broaden your culinary outlook, inspire cooking with love and intention, and open your world to más sabor!" – Chef Reina Gascón-López
