Steps:
- In a mortar and pestle, grind the salt until fine. This breaks the salt down to the same size as the ground spices.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the salt, garlic powder, onion powder, annatto, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and black pepper (if using).
- Whisk the spices together until blended well.
- Transfer the sazón to a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Store in a cool, dark place for 6 months or less.
- Use as desired; 1 1/2 teaspoon equals one packet of sazón, while a portion size is 1/2 teaspoon.

SAZóN
Cumin-heavy sazón is among the most commonly used spice blends in Puerto Rican cooking, and is also popular throughout Latin America. This seasoning is an incredible cheat, and is typically found in the international section of most supermarkets. Commercial brands are flavor bombs pumped with monosodium glutamate - MSG - that can make almost anything taste better. While I'm not MSG-phobic, I do prefer making my own blends to control both the flavor and the salt content. This is my take on sazón, minus the MSG, and with turmeric added along with the standard annatto to imbue dishes with a golden hue. Adaptation is encouraged based on preference, and if you can't find ground annatto then sweet paprika is a perfect substitute. It will keep in an air-tight container for years.

Steps:
- To start you will need three main ingredients. You can add others to add more flavor or texture, but the main three you need to make rice are: Oil, rice, and seasoning. Today I used a vegetarian seasoning that is very flavorful and also commonly used in Spanish rice. It contains no animals products so for all my vegetarians out there please know that you can still eat flavorful food if you are vegetarian or vegan. The seasoning I used is called Sazon Goya con Azafran (sassafras). Sassafras is what what gives the rice that traditional "yellow rice" color seen in Spanish dishes. My only warning is that because sassafras is yellow, this seasoning will give your fingers a yellow color. And please do not wear any clothes that you don't want splashed with yellow drops. I always try to wear and old shirt when I use this seasoning, and definitely not anything white!
- Now let's get to talking about some of the secrets you need to know if you want authentic tasting Spanish rice. The first secret is that you need to use a specific type of rice. You want to use parboiled rice. If you use a different type of rice, the rice will either turn out super mushy, or it will take forever and ever to cook, and probably turn out undercooked or overcooked and mushy. Parboiled rice is a very important for ingredient for restaurant quality rice.
- The second secret is that you want to cook, or "toast", the rice in hot oil BEFORE you add water to it. This helps to harden up the rice and prevent it from being super mushy or watery when it's finished cooking.
- The third secret is not mandatory but helps to add flavor. It is sauteing vegetables, such as onions and tomatoes, in the hot oil before you toast the rice. This flavors the oil and when you toast the rice in it, the rice absorbs even more flavor. You can saute pretty much any vegetables you like. In the pictures below you see me sauteing onions and a tomato together in oil, then toasting the rice in this oil before I add the water.
- Once you have toasted your rice for a minute or two, you are now free to add your water. It is better to add less water than more, and you can always add more water if you need it, but if you start by putting way too much water in, it will ruin the rice and reduce the flavor of it. I like to add a little water as I go, so when the rice looks like it has soaked up all the water and still isn't tender enough, I add a little more, and keep going until the rice tastes tender enough. Then I just cover the pot and turn the stove off, and let the rice continue to cook slowly for a little longer until somebody wants some. My family like butter in their rice, so sometimes I will add a few pats of butter into the cooking rice, but this is not necessary and abuelita would not approve of this, so this is really up to you to do this.
- If your rice doesn't come out perfect, don't panic! After a few times of making it you should be a pro!
- Buen Provecho!
