How many servings will this make?
THANK YOU!!!
I've made arroz con gandules before and never mastered it because my grandmother passed away before she could teach me, until I came across your page. Now every time I make this my man and my kids eat the entire pot. I have you to thank for that.
This is the ONLY channel I will come to for recipes! Every recipe is so good, and tastes just like my childhood❤️❤️
Literally!!!
AMEN to that!!! Aida is a true Puerto Rican cooking queen!!!!
Has she posted anything lately?
Same
You can tell she knows what she doing . Look at her pots
I'm not Puerto Rican but I grew up in a neighborhood called Sunset Park in Brooklyn, NYC where Boriquas rule the roost. All of Ida's dishes that I've made so far have been beyond tasty. Definitely transports me back to dinner at many an Abuela's household. Her sofrito recipe is my go-to when I want to be reminded of the bold, authentic flavors inherent to Caribbean Latin dishes. Thanks Ida!
Heyy, I grew up in park slope. I was always in sunset park. I miss the food on 5th ave so damn delicious.
@@mcazteca 5th ave where the stores were.
Sunset park skipping school playing handball til popo pulled up. Bkallday fam
💯 Sunset park for sure! 🙌🏽💯
I made this today and I can tell you that your recipes are like my Abuelas. She passed away and I often said I wish I would've got her recipes. Well I found it lol. Thank You for putting this channel together. You are now my Latina Cooking Mentor :)
Sly Corley Aww how sweet! Glad I could help.
: (
I feel the same way, my grandma passed years ago and I never wrote her recipes down !
yes yes she taught me to cook n stop ordering out I love her:)
THANK YOU FOR THE BLESSING To get exact measurements. Everyone loves it!!!
I LOVE how she checked the PETA website to see that the jamon sazon is accidentically vegan!!! Thank you!!! I came here looking for a vegan arroz con gandules recipe. Cannot wait to make this!♡♡♡♡
Seriously??!!!! I was going to get some but we are a non pork family...this is amazing
@@teedew6274 Unfortunately, when I checked the box in the store, the Jamon sazon is definitely not vegan. It does contain pork. Perhaps when this video was made, it didn't. Im not sure. But the good news is that I've made the rice without it and its just as good!
@@teedew6274 the ham flavoring is supposedly vegan, not the sazon
Ida, you're an excellent chef. You've helped me sooo many times. You're my virtual cookbook.
I'm American but my boyfriend is from Puerto Rico. I use your recipes for everything I cook. I get compliments from all his family and friends on my cooking. thanks for making your recipes so easy to follow. God bless
Still my go to channel when I need help in the kitchen. I am 24, and I have been watching since 2013. The first video I watched was for sofrito , so I could make it for my dad. He was so proud of me. Im glad you still are updating your channel. Favorite cooking channel for sure!
I made this in addition to using the homemade Sofrito recipe for my family vs making traditional Jamaican rice & peas. #1 it was super easy and #2 my family loved it...my mom is the pickiest eater and she said " you need to make this more often!" Thank you!
Ms. Is a special occasion because Gandules crops ARE picked this time of the year..and the amount of care and work it takes to pick, shell and soften the gandules...IS a beautiful thing which WE as Ricans..enjoy.. like coffee, lots of work, beautiful flavors,
Mexican raised in NY/NJ area and learn to eat the finest Puerto Rican flavors. Moved away but introduced my kids to eat your incredible dishes. Every time I want to bring joy to my family. Your my my go to. Love the simplicity and packed flavors.
I just came across your channel today and I’m sooooo happy!!! My ex was Puerto Rican and I LOVED his grandmothers cooking soooo much. When we broke up I missed her cooking and have tried so many times to make it and fail so bad but you make everything JUST like her! Thank you so much! Never thought I could love a stranger so much lol
I was born and raised in the island. I've been living in California for 30 years, only one PR restaurant in 60 miles, one way. I've been starving for Arroz con Gandules, its my favorite dish. Thanks for the video, the only thing I know to make is white rice and Goya kidney beans. (you know, the arroz y avichuelas.) I make that every-other day for me. I can't wait to try your recipe. Thank you for sharing...
I love this recipe, its so simple. I chop up a pork chop into small cubes and mix in while cooking sofrito to replace the ham seasoning. Thank you my family loves this.
You don’t know how much you’ve helped . I’m Mexican and this helps me cook my puertorican bf the food he loves
I love the passion you have for cooking ♡
She's the cook for me--excellent instructions, clean and doesn't eat out of her pots or utensils she is using. Marvelous!!!!
uses a separate clean separate spoon to taste the pot. that is the way I was taught. need to use a "clean washed spoon" every time you you taste for seasoning. unless you are cooking it for your individual self. imagine the cook using the dirty spoon over & over.
...spoon that she uses to taste.
I want to take this time out to thank you for your recipe video I tried your rice recipe and my rice came out perfect I could cry 😭 it was so delicious 😋 thanks a million 😊 may your hands continue to be blessed as well as your life amen 🙏
I swear by her recipes. Do it exactly as she does, and it comes out perfect!
So I followed this step by step and it came out perfect!!! My fiancé is Puerto Rican and I’m Jamaican/Irish, so I try to make dinners that he’s use to from time to time lol thank you so much!!
I can’t believe it’s been 2yrs since 1st tried this recipe. It’s still my favorite even tho I’ve memorized it, I still play this vid to cook along with you. Hope you are doing well🙏🏽😊
I always come back to this recipe since the first time I made it, comes out perfect every time! Thank you
I loved when you did the spoon trick! My grandma always does it when she makes her arroz con gandules! Love your channel!!
+Maritza Jimenez (Cupcake3410) Thank you!
Sweets and Beyond I don’t know about the spoon trick. Can you tell me what I should be looking for. Once I put the spoon in the pot? I’m learning
yo aprendi a cocinar contigo! no sabes lo que he aprendido & mejorado. super agradecida con tu channel god bless you always 😄
You know, i am all American. in my younger days my friends would invite me to their house for some rice and beans, P.R. style. The smell was AMAZING!!! thru the years i've picked up on ingredients here and there to finally hear my kids say, mom that was delicious. I reviewed your video and prepared my rice the exact same way. OMG, there was the smell i've been missing all this time! I was missing the oregano and the cumin. Thank you soooo much. Now i have to figure out how to slow the kids down while they are eating it. Oh, and btw, i've watched other videos of arroz con gandules? Not the same, and goodness, to much work. hehe. thanks again.
I was born in Cuba and raised in New York in a PR community. The neighbors would bring Arroz con Gandules and Pasteles (My 2 favorite dishes). For the life of me I can't make them but now I am going to make the Arroz con Gandules tomorrow and relive my teen years :). I still need the Pasteles recipe lol.
Thank you so much and you're amazing!
I remember having olives, potatoes and salt pork in my rice. I believe no 2 Puerto Ricans make this the same. That's ok it's all good thanks for your videos
Your rice looks amazing at the end! Perfect! Not mushy.
Mine comes out mushy.😁
I can stick it on a wall and make some art!😄
I like the way she makes it so hopefully, I can try it tomorrow. 🤞
I love your videos. I recently move to FL from NYC and with no Cuchifritos around your recipes are a little piece of the Bronx for me. Thanks! Keep the great recipes coming.
I lived in Puerto Rico for 5 years and sweets and beyond has been my best friend while I cooked for my husband. Thank you
Made this for Sunday dinner and it was Delicious!!! Family ate it up so fast, I had to make another batch the next day. You sure know how to cook!!!! Thank you.
I’ve made this rice two times and now I am a cooking super star.....to my family at least! Thank you so much!
Im Mexican/Native American and i love this dish!!💚
I've been following her recipe for years and it comes out finger licking delicious all the time.
Your camera person is awesome! Steady and and keeps the food in view. 👌👍
Tomeka Taylor He's my awesome hubby! Thank you!
you have brought back my childhood dishes..Now I make them and give the recipes to my daughter...Thank you Ida...God bless
Ali Rivera Aww how sweet! Blessings to you as well!
So I finally made it!!!! DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I haven't had Arroz con Gandules since my friends/neighbors/cooks moved. After watching your video I went and I got all the ingredients and made it. I had 3 servings, gave a teaser to my cousin and there's some left for dinner.
Wow!!!! I love it and thank you so much.
Your the best, I'm Puerto Rican, I love your kitchen, how you prepare our delicious latin foods, just like abuela use to make everything..
Being/ 3 sons 7 grands and spending most my young adult life in Hawaii, I lost many of our traditional method of cooking now I'm back full swing because if you, muchas gracias, ! I 💙
Your directions are foolproof! Thank you for another great recipe (made your sofrito yesterday).
It’s amazing how different we all cook!! I use tomatoe sauce and adobo, I also use onion and garlic powder and it’s amazing!!! I will have to try it this way it definitely looks delicious
I use jasmine rice and it is so tasty. .also put olives and smoked turkey kielbasa since we don't eat pork. delicious!
Just made this rice and it came out wonderful. Now I won't be afraid to make rice. Thank you so much, I also use the sofrito recipe
Glad you liked it! Buen Provecho!
Everytime I second guess myself I come to your page. Thank you for showing me how to cook and reassuring me everytime. The one person I had has passed away and you; down to your cooking remind me of her. Thank you so much
Me tooooo!! You have no idea how many times I’ve rewatched this video. Aida’s cooking is as close as it gets to my grandmothers 💫🌞
Same here! I’m a visual learner and as we grew up we only eat arroz con gandules on special occasions so I get nervous if I don’t cook it after awhile. I ask my mother how much of this or that or how long do I cook it? She goes “The ancestors will tell you” That doesn’t help 😂
OMG, thank you SO MUCH! I love, love, love your videos! They are so helpful to this PR I still learning how to cook PR food! My arroz con gandules always comes out watery, bland or both, and I always use the Goya recipe from the can. I'm going to try your recipe for sofrito because mine comes out differently every time. When I ask my mom for help, she just says, "Taste it. What does it need?" 🙄 So helpful lol My grandmother lives in NYC though, and my parents didn't teach me Spanish, so it's very difficult to communicate with her now that she's 90.
Nobody believes I’m Puerto Rican because my skin is very pale. Sunscreen very day taught by my 4 aunts! Watching your videos makes me feel like home. It’s served because it is ¡Muy delicioso!
Making this for my family reunion right now. They gonna be blowed 😂💖
i Just Want You To Know That i Love Your Videos.. Before i Came Across Your Videos i Would Cook Rice And Pray it Came out Well Cooked. The Moment i Cooked Watching Your Video My Rice Came Out So Perfect and Now it Comes Out Great.! Thank You So Much.!!
I just made this and I also made a whole chicken and Maduros with brown sugar (all your recipes ) and my family loved it ! Thank you so much I can't wait to try more of your recipes. Keep the videos coming.

😙
I ran into this video and made this rice for my hubby! He was lovin the flavors! Now I can’t stop watching all your videos!
This is the only recipe for rice that came out delicious. You are the best for rice.
I JUST DID IT,SABROSO...
I made this today and wow it was so good. Thanks!
VERONICA VEGA You're welcome!
My at time favorite puerto rican dish!!!!!!
I am so impressed by your techniques and authentic recipes today I have a couple that is moving to Texas. I invited them to have a Puerto Rican meal. It has been a couple of years that I have cooked Puerto Rican meals with my family living away due to their military lives. Almost forgot the favors and how to make it just right! Thank you I cannot for Thanksgiving “love thy neighbors” I plan on welcoming a few new and old neighbors for a Puerto Rican meal. As it is how Puerto Rican’s show they’re love through Food!
Thank you so much for this recipe, Ida! I've been enjoying arroz con gandules for years, but always in restaurants. I tried this recipe tonight and followed it exactly, and it's delicious! I did end up using a total of 2 cups water (spoon trick worked!). I also made your from-scratch sofrito recipe prior to making the rice. The clerk at the grocery store told me that aji dulce is currently banned from import into the US, so I bought a bag of Sweeties (tiny sweet bell peppers) and he said that would work. The aroma is fantastic. :) Thanks again, I'm definitely going to try more of your recipes this weekend.
Que cosa mas sabrosa! Arroz con Gandules turns an ordinary day into a holiday :D
I love her!!! All your recipes has my Puerto Rican Finance in love with me!!! Love you. I will always watch your videos!!!
Que rico! You know the Holidays is the day for Arroz con Guandule..
Made this today 10/19. Amazing just like my mom's 😍. Yours was and is the best Puerto Rican Food channel out here. I for one miss you but happy with the vlogs I can watch over and over again. Proudly 😙😚😙
Come back your missed ❤💖❤
alyce roman did you rinse your rice? i get so many people that tell me not to n so many tell me to rinse it that i just haven’t made it. i want to make this for my husband along with her pernil
Hi Aida, I’ve been using your recipes from the sofrito, arroz con gandules , pernil and more ! I honestly have to say that I love the way you explain everything and how it turned out in the end !! You should defenitly have a cooking book! Happy Thanksgiving
Thank you so so much. I am in LOVE with how this came out! I just made it tonight and my boyfriend smiled and my 3 year old couldn’t get enough!! I appreciate you!!
I love Puerto Rican food my old family love it I'm not Puerto Rican but I really do cook Puerto Rican

+katsleggs You're very welcome. Glad I could help.

krys cisne
😍😗😙😚😘
Wow... it’s been a long time that I’ve been trying to make Spanish rice this way. I have never been able to until I followed ur recipe. I added an extra can of beans (2 cans total), an extra tablespoon of sofrito and extra teaspoon of oregano. Still used the 2 cups of rice and only needed 1 1/2 cups of water. It came out delicious. Now I have the recipe thank god!
Btw... I used the green “Culantro cooking base” (softito) by GOYA. Didn’t taste any different. ❤️ Thank you!
hi ida i been watching your channel for about a month now>> i make one of your recipes every day you make me want to cook and enjoy it while doing so.. as a mom of two and a wife to a puerto rican man your recipes make every one happy in my family.. THANK YOU SO MUCH you changed my life >> :) tonight i will make your meat balls with the yuca mash along with some veggies yesterday i made your rice with gandules with your pork chops and a salad on the side .. it was a hit as always your the best and its so easy and simple to follow your instructions !!! i always give a thumbs up and you already know im subscribed !!!
This is so simple: Why do so many make big productions out of a straightforward process, which yields such a delicious dish?
Cannot wait to try this. Gonna give it a test run this week. I wanna surprise my family and serve it for Thanksgiving which will be at my house this year. I've always been nervous about trying it, but you make it look easy! Thanks for you vids!
It's good you'll like it. I made her chicken con arroz was tasty.
Don't be nervous! Once you do it, it's really easy.
Your a life saver I have my husbands parents asking for yellow rice and beans. I visited other videos but most people don't give measurements and even few tell you what you need before hand thank u
My grandma used to make this rice all the time for us. I want to start making it too. I love your videos.
I use tomato sauce and olives in mine.
me too - needs aceituna and tomato sauce for flavor...
Rebecca Bennett
Mmmm... Can You come over and cook for me 😍
M Serra what’s aceituna?
olives
Dont use tomato sauce on yellow rice.kill the aromatic flavor
I didnt have someone to teach me how to cook Boricua. lol Im learning! ty Ida
I just made this with Pernil Al Horno and Manduros. And it was a hit in my home. Thank you once again :)
I just made arroz con gandules for the first time using your recipe. It was delicious. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe with us.
One of my favs but can never get it right! TFS I tried the pollo guisado and my family loved it. I have to try this. My problem is I can't find goya here. Yesterday I found an isle full of goya products and I was so excited. I bought way to much stuff. lol I'm ready now!
Nice
Maybe you can find Goya products online? I'm not sure if they have it for sale but they might
I've made thus MANY times and I'm Jewish! Comes out good but can always be improved.
Would you PLEASE do a pasteles video!?
THANK YOU!
Me encantan tus recetas👌son ta sencillas y ricas desde P.R.🎄🎉🇵🇷🏝
I will be making this tomorrow with pork chops.. 2 thumbs up!!!!
Omg Mija you literally brought tears to my eyes. I’m watching to prepare a Thanksgiving dinner for the 1st time without my parents. Now this isn’t a sad story..they went on vacation and we are missing them terribly. But I’m stepping up and making sure I make this great para todo mi familia.
P.s. I’m definitely a Mommas boy but what puerto son could ever be less than mother’s baby!! I wear the title proudly.
nice video...and it looks absolutely delish...can't wait to try this :-)
I tell you....you taught me how cook Spanish food!!! I amazed myself...lol.... THANK YOU!
I love your videos they are so easy to follow my fiancé is Puerto Rican and I’m middle eastern so with your videos I’ve learned all his favorite dishes
Now I know the secret, the ham packet!
@Tucker NO the REAL SECRET is to also throw some REAL HAM up in that rice!!!!
That's what I was missing. My grandmother used cubes of ham.
To much work, plus anyways she said ham seasoning is vegan.
Yeah, the first time I made this I didn't cook my sofrito enough, and I didn't have the ham packet. It was very good, but not quite there. Did everything the 2nd time almost to a T of her instructions and it was fucking phenomenal and had the right color!
It’s really not...
Just like MaMa use to make,In time for the holidau
+Norman Nazario Yes!
+Sweets and Beyond One of my goals is to find the ULTIMATE Arroz con Grandules recipes and I will be giving this recipe a try.
Making this recipe for the 4th time. So so so delicious and simple. Reminds me of home!
I love it so much. I made this too. thanks so much. I'm Mexican but I love Puerto Rican food and now I'm learning more on how to make it cause of your videos.
I wish I could taste your foods 😘
I'm so hungry right now!

My favorite type of rice mix. Thanks for the vid.
I'm part Puerto. Rican born in Hawaii and we do the same way of cooking P.R. good in Hawaii.
Looks yummy. I love Arroz con gandules. I noticed you didn't use salsa de tomate, interesting. I wonder if it tastes very different without it.
Jesus Soto me too. Wonder why no Salsa?
It tastes better without :) no need for it
was wondering too...
I use tomato flavored sofrito from Goya. It’s amazing & no tomato sauce needed. I also add olives
Thank you! My honey love it lol :).
Love this rice my neighbor Nikki makes this all the time and I got hooked
wow ! You Remind Me of everything that's beautiful with Yonkers New York
,The Bronx New York ,and every place that has Puerto Ricans. although I've never been to Puerto Rico , god bless you. delicious
can you make a video of how to make bacalou salad my favorite
Thanks Aida for the recipe! Question..Do you ever use garlic in your arroz con gandules?
There is garlic in the sofrito
I keep making this recipe over and over! I’ve done it with chicken as well ❤️ Thank you for the thorough instructions!!! 👍🏼
BEST VIDEO EVER for arroz con gandules!!! I just added a bunch of cilantro and green olives. Tastes just like my mamis.👏👏👏 Thank You.
Thanks for sharing. My Aunts ex-husband use to tell me he would use salted pork or ham-hawk. Also are you using a cast iron pot?
Or smoke pork neck bones. That is the original way from Scratch see And achiote Oil instead of tomato paste
ham hock*
