Sazon Seasoning

Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. Properly stored, it can last for 1-2 years, though its flavor may diminish over time.

Use sazon to season meats, poultry, fish, rice, beans, and vegetables.

Add it early in the cooking process to allow the flavors to meld.

Consider brands that contain achiote (annatto) for a characteristic color and subtle flavor.

Rice and beans

Chicken and pork

Beef stews

Seafood

Root vegetables

Over-salting: Some pre-made sazon blends contain salt. Taste your dish before adding extra salt.

Using too much: Start with a small amount and add more to taste, as sazon has a potent flavor.
