Mojo Sauces from Sanguich Miami
The offerings: Mojo Verde and Mojo Rojo ($9.99 per bottle)
The story: Husband and wife owners Danny and Rosa Figueredo, who opened Sanguich in 2015, introduced the vinegar-and-pepper sauces for their Cuban sandwiches and croquetas. “We’re sauce people, and we wanted to include all the ingredients of our culture,” said Danny. The verde is shelf stable and with no dairy and is “a real sauce something people can dip food into,” he says. Mojo Verde is made from roasted green bell pepper, garlic, parsley, cilantro, vinegar, crushed red pepper and lime juice; Mojo Rojo, popular for steaks, uses roasted red bell peppers, garlic, tomato, onion, jalapeño and spices. They also sell housemade mustard, Garlic Cilantro Aioli, Original Mojo and Mojo Dill Pickles sauces. How to use: Dip Cuban sandwiches, croquetas and picadas like plantain fries and light-as-air chicharrones into their mojo sauces.
Where to buy: At Sanguich in Little Havana or buy online.
