Why cooks start here
A dry sofrito blend keeps the backbone of Spanish cooking — onion, garlic, tomato, and pimentón — on the shelf for the nights when a stew has to start in a hurry.
Sofrito Seco Español is a pantry staple that embodies the essence of Spanish cooking, capturing the flavors of the Mediterranean in a convenient, dry form. Developed for those bustling weeknights when time is short yet the craving for a deeply flavored stew, paella, or fabada persists, this blend ensures the foundational tastes of Spain are always within reach. The combination of dried tomato, onion, garlic, and sweet pimentón de la Vera delivers a rich, smoky sweetness with a hint of warmth and earthiness. When bloomed in olive oil, this dry sofrito releases its full aromatic potential, infusing dishes with a robust depth that elevates any meal to an authentic Spanish experience.
