Tierra Palaciega Sofrito with Tomato – Spanish Cooking Base 340g

Tierra Palaciega's sofrito brings the Andalusian tradition of Los Palacios straight to your kitchen. This golden-bronze cooking base of tomatoes and extra virgin olive oil is the foundation that Spanish home cooks have relied on for generations—a shortcut to depth that tastes nothing like a shortcut. At 340 grams, one jar will carry you through several meals, from rice dishes to stews.

About this product

Sofrito is the aromatic base that opens a Spanish meal. Rather than coaxing flavor from scratch—peeling tomatoes, simmering them down—you begin with this concentrate of slow-cooked tomato bound in extra virgin olive oil. The Los Palacios tomato variety, grown in Andalusia, carries natural sweetness and low acidity, making sofrito a stable, reliable backbone for paella, gazpacho preparations, and bean dishes. No artificial thickeners, no mystery ingredients: just tomato and oil.

How to enjoy

• Stir into a pan of sautéed onion and garlic as the base for a seafood rice or fideuà.
• Whisk into gazpacho or salmorejo for richer body and warmth.
• Spoon over roasted white beans with a shower of jamón and a crouton.
• Use as a quick pasta sauce with a handful of fresh herbs and a beaten egg for Spanish-style carbonara.
• Spread on toast with serrano ham and manchego for a country tapa.

⭐ Why we love this

Tierra Palaciega sofrito captures the essence of Andalusian home cooking in a jar—it's the real deal, not a shortcut substitute. Los Palacios tomatoes have been the gold standard for sofrito since Spanish cooks perfected this technique generations ago, and this concentrate delivers that authentic slow-cooked depth without requiring hours at the stove.

🍷 Pairing suggestion

Stir this into a pan with seafood for paella or fideuà, then pour a crisp Fino sherry alongside—the wine's salinity cuts through the tomato's richness beautifully. For lighter meals, whisk it into gazpacho chilled and serve as a summer starter before grilled fish, with a glass of Albariño.

📍 From Spain

Born in Los Palacios, a sun-drenched corner of Andalusia famous for its tomatoes, this sofrito comes from one of Spain's most storied agricultural regions. The terroir of Los Palacios—limestone soil and Mediterranean heat—produces tomatoes with natural sweetness that make this concentrate sing without added sugar or thickeners.
