My 11 year old and I waited in anticipation for the items to be delivered to us this past March and when it arrived. I wasted no time in heating the pasteles up and using the sofrito for the beans and empanadas. My daughter and I was in love!!!! Paired our meal off with some Malta goya and aguacate and it was a hit. You sir, Are gifted!!! Please keep sharing your recipes with us. Much love

Not a "Rican", but a Caribbean Dreamer (Native Texan ) and i love cooking Puerto Rican foods. you are so right you are very meticulous in the kitchen and the way you instruct "step by step" I like that you wore gloves instead of being bare handed handling foods and utensils... I have watched many Mofongo recipes on You Tube and i have to say yours is so informative and gives the viewer a chance to expand their options with many variations you gave. I simply love the Mojo that you used to moisten the mofongo and the chicken broth to enhance the flavor of it as well. The plating of the mofongo was inviting yet eye-catching. "Presentation is Everything !" you know they say you eat with your eyes first and it looked amazing. I will have to try this recipe and add my own twerks to it, for one of our dinner nights and invite my Puerto Rican Friends.. I have never traveled to New York, but if i do, I will have to stop in. better yet, expand and open one in Houston instead. We just had our Puerto Rican, Dominican and Cuban Festival...It was awesome. The invitation is open. prcfestival.com/
