About Adobo fresco
Adobo is a savory marinade and seasoning with deep roots in Spanish, Latin American, and Filipino kitchens, though the word means very different things depending on where you are. In Mexico, adobo is a thick, brick-red paste of dried chiles, garlic, vinegar, and warm spices that coats meats and gives us the smoky chipotles in adobo sold in cans. Filipino adobo, by contrast, is a beloved home-style dish in which chicken or pork is braised in vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, and bay leaf until glossy and tender.
The dried Latin adobo seasoning blend, heavy on garlic, oregano, and cumin, is a pantry shortcut for sprinkling over just about anything. Nutritionally it varies with the recipe, but most versions lean on garlic, chiles, and herbs rather than fat, so a little delivers big flavor for few calories. Store homemade adobo paste or sauce covered in the refrigerator, and keep the dry blend sealed away from heat and light.
