In PR, sofrito serves the same purpose, the difference is the veggies present. We use onions, garlic, green cuban pepper (or green bell pepper as a substitute), sweet ají (or red bell pepper as a sub), and sawtooth cilantro/culantro. Tomatoes may be added if you have nice fresh and ripe ones, or you can use tomato paste or sauce(spanish style), but it depends on the dish.
Thank you very much for this video. It is well made, historical and educational due to the basic context that includes in which explains that different cultures make similar dishes and condiments, yet using what one may have in their garden, farm or market. I've made Sofrito many times and I have used a small amount of celery and kalamata olives, along with other traditional Latin Caribbean ingredients. It is a preference, and a very tasty twist from the traditional form...nonetheless, one must never forget to practice and teach the basics.
@@devyani347 theres a bit more to it though. Outside of carrots we also use root vergetables like celery root , parsley root and parsnips. We also have more herbs than just parsley such as savory or thyme , celery leaves, lovage or wild bears garlic

Likely Suppengrün: Add leek and parley to the 3 other ingredients, then boil a stock - I've to try frying the leftovers of that for a mirepoix.

Non lo so ma mi sa che il soffrito spagnolo usa anche pomodoro, non so come fanno che non si bagna tutto.
