This is a version of the seasoning used in much of Latin America. People often make a batch and freeze most of it in covered ice trays. Sofrito is added to things like soups, stews, sauces, rice, chicken dishes, etc. This version is made with ingredients readily available in groceries and Latin markets in America.

Italian Pot Roast

Italian Pot Roast by myra byanka

Delicious, easy prep pot roast that is sometimes prepared with Barolo wine. At $30.00 - 80.00 per 750 ml, it's too expensive for me. Plus, the tannins can be a problem. Substitute Barolo with another Italian wine like dolcetto d'Alba, Barbera, Chianti, or a use a California merlot or cabernet sauvignon. Serve with noodles or…

However, since I'm in love with Butter Flavor Crisco now, I made a batch of buttercream frosting using it with butter, and can't taste the shortening. Yum! You can add any flavor to this basic recipe: extracts, citrus juices, cocoa, melted…
