Adobo Seasoning from the Blends of the Americas Collection by Merchant Spice Co.

Spiced with soul and steeped in tradition, Adobo ignites flavor with every rub, every marinade—a homage to Latin American hearths. The word, Adobo, derives from the Spanish word ‘adobar’, which means to marinate. Fragrant with garlic and grounded in centuries of Latin heritage, this blend whispers of slow-roasted evenings and richly seasoned fare.

🌶️ Our Adobo Seasoning – is a Bold Embrace of Earth, Smoke, and Citrus This blend is a radiant tapestry of savory depth and sunlit spice—crafted to honor the culinary soul of Latin America. Sweet paprika and chipotle pepper offer a smoky warmth, while garlic and onion powders build a robust, aromatic foundation. Mexican oregano and parsley lend herbal brightness, joined by cilantro’s green lift and cumin’s earthy resonance. Black pepper adds piquant clarity, turmeric and achiote infuse golden color and subtle bitterness, and lime zest with lime oil finish the blend with a citrusy shimmer. The result is bold yet balanced layered with warmth, freshness, and a whisper of fire.

🏺From Past to Palate:
Adobo, from the Spanish adobar (“to marinate”), began as a preservation method—meats steeped in vinegar, salt, and spices to endure tropical heat. As the technique traveled through colonial trade and migration, it evolved into dry rubs and seasoning blends across Latin America and the Caribbean. Paprika and cumin arrived via Iberian spice routes, while achiote (annatto) and chipotle trace their roots to Indigenous Mesoamerican kitchens. Mexican oregano and cilantro reflect the fusion of Mediterranean and native herbs, and citrus—especially lime—became essential in marinades like adobo seco and mojo criollo. Today, adobo seasoning is a celebration of flavor, heritage, and culinary ingenuity.

👨‍🍳Notes for the Curious Palate:
