If not try the Mrs. Nucky Internationally known Sofrito:

Nothing like following directions but what makes it special is the extra stuff that gets added as they girls get going on this brew!

For a Small Batch:
2 medium Spanish Onions, cut into large chunks

3 to 4 Cubanelle or Italian frying peppers

The specifics here are from a handwritten index card copied from a cook book at some point. It looks like it was a while ago. Good Luck.

16 to 20 Cloves of Garlic, peeled

7 to 10 Ajies Dulces, they appear to be Habeneros and Scott bonnet pepers but at the other end of the heat scale. They are sweet with a bright green, herbal flavor. Culantro is a leafy herb that smells like Cilantro on steroids. If you can't find them just use 1 1/2 bunch of Cilantro.

3 to 4 Plum Tomatoes, cored and cut into chunks.

1 large Red bell Pepper, Cored Seeded and cut into large chunks.

Shovel everything into the work bowl of a food processor and process until coarsely chopped. With the motor running, add the remaining ingredients one at a time, processing until smooth. The Sofrito will keep in the fridge for 3 days and also freezes beautifully.

I know Zip-pity Doo Da about cooking anything. I was 98 Lbs. when I met my lovely wife 21 years ago and now I'm not 98 Lbs. anymore. I think she spices it up more than what she will let on. When I tried to get the secret part from her she said "Does Macy's tell Gimbal's".

Enjoy Nucky. P.S. Do Not under any circumstances add Tilapia. LOL

Well, NOTHING will stop me from trying that!
