I came to the comments wanting to say the same thing! Also add cilantro and a split jalapeño .. *chefs kiss*

[@Ih8danhumphrey]

I loterally just watched a short right above this, a latina woman shared her recipe and the difference is real. She blended a fresh tomato with the onion and garlic, and also let the rice soak it up before she added hot water and a jalapeño shit looked fire

[@nenem.5165]

It looks like she removed them. Only flavored the oil with them

[@carlozcabrera]

i hate having burnt onion and garlic in the rice. lmao so i cook it like this as well. its just so ugly! id rather blend tomato, garlic, and onion into the broth i use.

[@EpicAlcatraz99]

Hell fuckin ya. Thats exaclty how im gonna make it. Gonna dice the onion and use minced garlic.

[@jjgems5909]

That looks good. Personally our family liked to chop the onion and cook it with the rice. And leave the garlic crushed but whole and cook it with the rice and remove them once done. Sometimes we use tomato sauce or paste if we have it on hand and we don’t feel like doing the extra step of blending. My 85 year old Mexican grandma and my Aunts even uses a can of paste or sauce, it’s not a big deal. Some people feel more special blending it themselves but tomato sauce is literally the same thing puréed tomato lol and Tomato paste is concentrated tomato. You can find both in any Mexican super market, el super, Cardenas, north gate, Baja ranch. I’m in CA. And we LOVE that tomate bouillon! Literally good on everything. But for the rice usually just the regular one. Overall it looks good 👍

[@jjgems5909]

And some people will blend the tomatoes with the onion and garlic and pour that into the rice.

[@Rhaspun]

Yes the onions add to the flavor. The recipe is really flexible as to what you can add. Sometimes I'll throw in small bits of chicken to be cook along with the rice.

[@juanorozco1971]

But doing it fresh does taste better though I don't mind the sauce at all but fresh is always better

[@Betoven81]

[@mariagoumas6135]

Where to buy tomato paste in tube

[@jjgems5909]

Any market sells it. My 85 year old Mexican grandma has made arroz with paste, or tomato sauce or fresh tomatoes. You can use either. Unless you live maybe in the middle of nowhere you cant fine tomato paste. My family is from a small pueblo In Zacatecas and you can still find canned tomatoes.

[@Munenushi]

Cooking Videos be like: "so just take out your butter churn and whip up some butter on the side, then place that aside and using a large mortar and pestle, grind up your wheat berries that you threshed and winnowed already, into flour, then you just throw that in the oven with some other ingredients you have lying around and there's your pasta"

[@pi55bier]

There's so many variations. You can also add a half or full can of el pato hot tomato sauce, add a can of corn, green beans, peas, etc. Add a spritz of lime, cilantro etc. Only real criticism I have is to finely chop the onion, and garlic and leave it in there.

[@emmel4fun]

Canned green beans and peas are not very good. Frozen are better. Canned corn is good, though.

[@ramirovillarreal5397]

Thanks for sharing! It’s my first time cooking Mexican rice and it was delicious! My whole family loved it!❤️🤟

[@Fletchlie]

Never put garlic in at the start. Its burned and will taste horribly bitter.

[@Anthony_626]

All he does is flavor the oil then he removes it before the garlic ever burns.

[@bbingtube]

Blend your sofritas and stock before adding to the pilaf’d rice. Use med grain rice. Place cilantro on top before covering so it can be removed (they get brown and mushy) if you want green, it is more traditional to use regular parsley and add after when rice resting 🤙 My little thing is adding extra 👌cracked black pepper before simmer. Also cumen 👌👌💋

[@Bangtans_princess]

Ok but WHERE DID THE ONION AND GARLIC GO 😭

[@Superator69]

You add garlic and cumin powder with the tomato sauce and chicken broth after you brown the rice in oil. That first step was a waste of time if you take the garlic and onion out. You wanna dice the onion into small pieces and mince the garlic or mix it in a blender with the tomato sauce, tomatoes, Mexican oregano, cumin powder, and chicken broth.

[@johnnymccloy1163]

I'd add on to that, but decent starter recipe... 👌

[@courtrm]

He never said “Hey I’m Mexican and this is my rice recipe that’s been passed down for generations.” If you’re Mexican and can cook rice, why are you even watching this? My Mexican dad was in jail most my life so I unfortunately never learned how to properly cook rice. I’m thankful that I can at least learn and get tips where ever I can.

[@mrxman581]

He said it was Spanish rice. That's wrong, too. Spanish rice is from Spain and prepared very differently. You shouldn't take cooking tips from someone who doesn't even know what he's cooking.

[@ComradeVenus]

I reccomend browning the tomato paste in the pan before adding the stock, browned tomato paste has a wonderful flavor 😋 (Also also if you chop the onion finely you can keep it in the rice so you dont waste anything. You can also use a garlic crusher but you would need to wait until the end because it burns quickly)

Literally a lot of Mexicans use tomato paste for cooking. Unless You live in a rancho with no electricity you can find tomato paste anywhere. I have an 85 grandma from Zacatecas, she can easily make rice with blended tomatoes but sometimes she doesn’t want to. She’ll use a small can of paste or sauce. It’s not a big deal. It actually comes out a bit more flavorful because the tomatoes that are canned are picked at peak season.

The confusion comes from how Americans use the word “Spanish” there is a Spanish rice made traditionally in Spain but it is not the same as Mexican rice, the reason why Mexican rice is called spanish in the USA is because Americans association of the Spanish language with Mexico, everything Mexican even the people get called “Spanish” by Americans they are not referencing Spain but Mexico instead.
