Alinos (Seasoning Paste) image

Alinos is a sort of sofrito or hagao, but without cilantro or tomatoes. At least this version has no cilantro or tomatoes in it. It is very easy to make in a food processor or blender. It keeps for one week in the refrigerator (as long as you remember to use a clean spoon each time you dip in). You will find many uses for this seasoning paste. It can be used to season masa, rice, stews, or soups. This flavor combination complements many different cooking styles and tastes. For longer storage, try spooning it into ice cube trays to freeze. Once frozen, just pop them out and store in a plastic freezer bag.
