Hi Odette! You’re right that traditionally, fresh plantains are used. I cook tostones both ways, as I said, and definitely enjoy cooking and providing my family with a nice meal – shortcuts or not. Thanks for the comment!

Perhaps today’s working society prefers it the easy way, but I still make my own sofrito, and aside from Hunts Tomato Paste, I do not purchase canned items to cook from, nor frozen tostones. That must be the ultimate laziness! It’s so easy to peel a plantain and cook it yourself. Making it real is the real tradition! Don’t be afraid to cook.

Hi there! I honestly don’t use a specific kind of meat tenderizer. I’d look for what you can find at your grocery store. As for how much seasoning, I usually just coat the meat well. Like I said in the post, I don’t ever measure, so just season it well and make sure all the meat is covered. I’d probably use closer to 2 sazón packets, though, since you have more meat. Hope that helps!
