Categories     Marinade     Spices

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 head garlic (approx. 10 large cloves)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 cup minced white onion
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cups sour orange juice* ((naranja agria))
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • In a mortar and pestle, add the garlic cloves and salt. Mash both until you get a smooth paste.
  • In a large mason jar, add the garlic paste, minced onion, black pepper, oregano, cumin, sour orange juice, and olive oil. Close the jar tightly with the lid and shake it until well combined. Be sure to shake well before every use.
  • Feel free to taste and adjust seasoning. If you're not a fan of garlic, you can add less (maybe 5 or 6 cloves). This marinade should taste garlicky, fresh, tangy, citrusy, bright, and slightly sour. Never sweet nor spicy.
  • This recipe makes approximately 2 cups of mojo marinade which will last approximately up to 3 weeks in an airtight container/mason jar. You can also freeze it in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Enjoy!

SUPER FRESH CUBAN-STYLE MOJO



Super Fresh Cuban-Style Mojo image

There are many, many recipes for Cuban-Style Mojo. Some use naranja agria (sour orange) or dried herbs. I like this particular recipe because it is so easy and tastes so fresh. This recipe is an adaptation of the mojo made by my grandmother, who is from a small town in the province of Pinar Del Rio, in western Cuba. I usually use this delicious sauce on top of boiled yuca and as a dipping sauce for fried yuca, fried malanga or fried green plaintains (tostones). But it is very versatile and can be used to dip other vegetables in, as a marinade or sauce for meat, fish or chicken, or even mixed into a side dish of rice..

SOUR ORANGE, RED ONION, AND PARSLEY MOJO



Sour Orange, Red Onion, and Parsley Mojo image

This recipe differs slightly from classic mojo in that it uses red onion instead of garlic. It's best to make this mojo a bit ahead of time so that the color of the red onion "bleeds" into the sour orange. The traditional accompaniment is grilled pork, but it's also wonderful with well-roasted chicken - charring its skin brings out the full flavors of the mojo.

Yield Makes approximately 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

Juice of 5 Seville (sour) oranges (about 1 cup)
1 red onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/2 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1/2 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Place the orange juice, onion, parsley, olive oil, and salt in a mixing bowl and blend well using a wire whisk. Keep refrigerated for up to 2 days.
