Goya products

Christine Dabney said:

Heya folks,

I will be heading back to NM in a little less than 2 weeks. And when
I go, I want to take some things back with me. I see a lot of Goya
products on the shelves here, and they are not readily available in
NM. I am wondering if there are any of these products that are really
good, and might be good to take back with me...

I like all of the Goya canned beans that I have tried -- black beans,
chickpeas, red beans, refried beans. Goya adobo seasoning is a good
all-purpose seasoning.

Their olive oil isn't too shabby, for the price.

Goya olive oil is nice, and their boullion powder and cubes are handy
for adding some flavor to rice and potatoes.

I've yet to try a Goya product that hasn't been better than its
counter part in a different brand... not equal to, better.

If you are flying, taking a lot of canned beans will be difficult ;-)
but for future reference, I think Goya's cannellini beans are as good
or better than Progresso.

I particularly like - REALLY LIKE -- their canary beans. Follow the
receipe on back of the can -- very good!

I use Goya canned black beans, kidney beans and chick peas. They are
all very good, imho.
I know some who like the Adobo seasoning, but I have never used it.
My niece uses it in her fried chicken.

olive oil.

If worse comes to worse, they have an online store; it's the
last link in that top menu.

They have a good anchovy stuffed olive...

Never really been impressed with anything else as I can find all
sorts of the same items, just better.

I think Goya olive oil is excellent and much prefer it over other brands I
have tried. I also enjoy Goya Chorizo; it's the the cured, hard, Spanish
style, not the soft Mexican style.

I've kinda dull teeth from gritting, and I found the Goya
sausage completely inedible. Good taste, but I had to spit it
out because of too much gristle.

The revamped Ta Lin (Central and Louisiana) has some Goya products but
not in the 'Asian' section. Some of the Mexican shops (such as the one
at Central and San Pedro) also have some Goya products but can't say
what the range is.

Okay.
Is that the mercado there at San Pedro and Central? The marketplace on
the southwest corner?

If so, I went in there once, and wasn't very impressed. However, that
was a year or so ago. It may have changed since then.

boxes of cookbooks into the minivan.

Goya Guava Paste, served in slivers on top of thin bits of good cheddar
cheese. DELICIOUS!

Besides the beans, we like their Mojo Criollo marinade and the fruit
nectars.

I use Goya Marinade Mojo Criollo for grilled chicken.

It comes in a 22 oz bottle. This is enough for 2 chickens

I add juice of 1 lemon and 1/4 cup of Olive Oil to the marinade

Its made in the Dominican Republic.

I've not noticed that; but, I always use it with casing removed and diced.
Most often I use it in omelets, breakfast taco/burrito or huevos rancheros.
I do find a lot of white chunks in it when dicing, but they melt away during
cooking, I assume it is fat, not gristle.

The taste is great. For a softer, yet still tasty chorizo, I buy Aldi's
Mexican style.
