5 star recipe! I finally made this last night! it is SO good. I'm vegetarian, so I left out the pork, but I substituted soy curls (a dehydrated soy product -- much better and meatier than TVP) that I rehydrated in a vegan "ham" flavored broth to which I added a TINY touch of liquid smoke. I kept everything else exactly as written. WOW. so delicious! and now I have a bunch of sofrito in my freezer that I can use to make this and other recipes. thank you so much! both my housemate and I LOVE this recipe.

For the meat I've used cubed salt pork (edit: or pork belly that I marinate and smoke) and roasted pig head meat. Since I boil the pig head with culantro, garlic and citrus before roasting, I use the gelatinous broth for my arroz con gandules. I use the drippings mixed with achiote to baste the pig head and also toast the rice. Have you ever used banana leaf instead of foil? I think it adds a great aroma.
@SenseandEdibility Жыл бұрын
I do, actually, but I lay the banana leaf directly onto the rice and still seal the pot with the foil. A great technique for adding that wonderful flavor of plantano.

Just wanted to share with you when I make this rice for a vegan family I use a packet or two of GOYA HAMON it is VEGAN , cause I had to do my research. There is NO PORK PRODUCT in it at all just flavorings.. lol I can’t wait to watch all your other videos. I have a 12lb Pernil cooking as I am writing this. I used your WRAPPING METHOD with the foil and plastic wrap. I have to say this part was amazing to me. I always have so much liquid in my bowl from the 2-3 days of marinating it in the frig. Can’t wait to see how your method turns out for me. Que Rico 🥰

Parboiled rice is actually rice that’s washed and partially cooked, so there’s really no reason to rinse it. If you want to make it with long grain rice you’ll need to rinse it too

Can you give amounts to each spice and how much water and tomato sauce?

I would love for you to make a recipe on the pigeon peas, I’d love to learn your recipes with all fresh ingredients.

You can replace the canned pigeon peas with fresh or frozen.

This is my second time making this recipe. Living in Maine the only brand gandules I can buy are Goya. My first batch was 3/4 cup of liquid, today it was bam 1cup. This must be one of the brand you don't use. Thank for the recipes I enjoy cooking many of them in the winter. How about some Puerto Rican BBQ recipes for summer. Thanks

Yeah, I definitely don't use Goya anymore. I would just adjust based off the liquid you get from the can. I'll do my best to get some BBQ recipes up soon. I took a much-needed break in January.

True boneless chicken dries and becomes firm after cooking with rice. I will try using the pork chops next time.

Boneless breasts, specifically. I find that boneless thighs are MUCH better for this rice.

Thanks for explaining rinsing the rice 4 times in cool water take' off starch & makes it fluffy. 🎈✨️
