Adobo is an all-purpose seasoned salt commonly used in Puerto Rico and across Latin America. It’s a great addition to just about any savory Puerto Rican dish. Unlike Sazón (left) it doesn’t include annatto, so it doesn’t add the same vibrant orange color. It’s an incredible cheat, and is particularly good in marinades for grilled meats.

Ingredients

  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • tsp kosher salt, plus more as needed
  • ¼

Method

In a small bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well with a fork. Taste and add more salt if desired.
