Dominican Dishes Latin Fusion Mexican Recipes

How to make Latin dry all-purpose adobo seasoning and sazón

2 containers of Latin all purpose adobo and sazon seasoning
Latin All-Purpose Adobo Seasoning and Sazón

All-purpose adobo and sazón are staples in Latin cooking. Everything from chicken, beef, pork and even fish can be seasoned with either of these seasonings.

I love the adobo for chicken, beef when it’s stewed. The sazón is great on anything fried, if you ask me, like pork chops, breaded fish. But, I must emphasize that every cook does things their way so you may find all sorts of recipes created with either or.

What are the differences between all-purpose adobo and sazón?

All-purpose adobo makes chicken taste like chicken. Especially the dry mix like the one in this recipe. Sazón on the other hand is a savory flavor that’s distinctive and Caribbean. Goes well with tomato and peppers.

Arroz con pollo (locrio) for example, is a dish where you can mix both if you’d like to. I also love to use both when I am cooking my fried pork chops.

Adobo is amazing when seasoning a large pork shoulder and roast it until it’s tender and falling apart. 

In reality, the differences are the mix of the spices used in each. Sazón has an orange like color because of the use of annatto. Which by the way adds a smooth smoky flavor too.

You must experiment and see for yourself when it comes to all you can cook up with both of these seasonings, you really can’t go wrong with either. Until this day I am still experimenting with them and don’t see an end in sight!

Watch me make them!

This week, we start with "Revoltillo de Huevos con Tomates", in English it translates to Dominican "Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes". Sooo good, it's crazy! 😋

These softly scrambled eggs with juicy tomatoes are perfect when combined with boiled/mashed plantains or even bread, (any of the two work!). So, if you're looking for a delicious meal to cook for breakfast, lunch or dinner, you'll never go wrong with this one. Easy and fast to make!

LATIN RICE BALLS A big thank you once again to my LATIN RICE BALLS
A big thank you once again to my awesome aunt Ines for sharing this recipe with me to share with you!
Here she uses Latin Queso De Freir (frying cheese) along with the mozzarella. This Queso de freir is very popular in Latin America because it fries beautifully. The flavor isn't too bold and the texture is nice and gooey.

When I decided that I would blog as a career, just When I decided that I would blog as a career, just over 2 years ago, I honestly thought follower numbers mattered. That if I had a certain number, that would make my blog considered successful.

I understand today that success can't be measured in numbers. I define it very differently today. Success to me now is knowing that I am bringing value to someone's life. That I am building relationships, not just with my audience but also with others that are doing what I am doing. I try my best to always support other bloggers/video content creators, because my true belief is that my only competition is myself.

I feel such warmth in my heart and joy when a follower/viewer lets me know they made a recipe of mine and that it was delicious. Even better, when they say it reminded them of their mother's or grandmother's and that now they can make them too, this for my Dominican ones.

I want to continue to bring value to you so if there is anything you would like to see me make, it doesn't have to be Dominican or even Latin, let me know and I will go for it!

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support, it keeps me going.

I always stress about whether I should share more I always stress about whether I should share more about my life. I wish I was more relaxed about it. I always think people don't want to hear it and that all that matters is my cooking. But this is 99% of me, of who I am as an individual today and I think it's important for you to know me as I am and what we go through as special needs family, of course, with no dramatics.
My youngest, 11 yr old non-verbal autistic, has been falling asleep everywhere. At one point ending up in the ER because he was so out of it he couldn't be woken up, another time fainting. A couple of months later, and many tests later, we landed on a diagnosis of sleep apnea. Better than seizures or narcolepsy for sure so we feel good about it. The next step was removing the tonsils (adenoids were removed at 2 yrs old). 
It's been a rough few months but we have tried super hard to look at the positive and this moment is one of them. That being said, here is a video of our oldest making sure his brother is happy and calm by stroking his hair and tending to him whenever he can after getting his tonsils out on Friday. Our little guy sure is a lucky boy. 🥰
