SOMOS, a Mexican food brand co-founded by Mexican-American friends Miguel Leal, Daniel Lubetzky, and Rodrigo Zuloaga, expanded its growing product portfolio of Mexican meal solutions with a new line of Taco, Fajita, and Al Pastor Simmer Sauces inspired by the meals the SOMOS team grew up eating. Each Simmer Sauce is made with the same whole ingredients that you'd use when cooking a meal from scratch. While other cooking sauces on the market list water as their first ingredient and dry seasoning packs are packed with preservatives, SOMOS' Simmer Sauces lead with vegetables (peppers, tomatoes, or tomatillos), resulting in a rich, complex flavor and thicker texture.
Each Simmer Sauce is made using high-quality ingredients, 98% of which are sourced from Mexico, and draws on flavors enjoyed in classic Mexican dishes. Miguel, Daniel, and Rodrigo were inspired by the vast selection of sauces available on Mexican shelves, and with the launch of SOMOS' Simmer Sauces, they're looking beyond salsa and standard enchilada sauce to bring a real taste of Mexico stateside.
SOMOS is also releasing Red and Green Enchilada Sauces nationwide after a successful exclusive debut in Whole Foods Market, plus two varieties of Mole Simmer Sauces –– Red and Poblano –– later this spring. All of SOMOS' Simmer Sauces are fully cooked and the team recommends that they be added to browned meat or cooked veggies, then simmered on low heat for five minutes. The Simmer Sauces can also be used as marinades or as a flavor booster for slow cooker soups, meat & veggies, and grains.
SOMOS' Simmer Sauces are available in 12oz jars for $4.99 and 8oz pouches for $2.99, available to purchase on eatsomos.com, Amazon, and on retail shelves nationwide including Whole Foods Market, Meijer, and Sprouts Farmers Market this spring, with Target and more to follow later this year.
