When my Puerto Rican customers pick up gandules, I already know there’s a good chance arroz con gandules is on the menu. Goya Green Pigeon Peas have that familiar earthy flavor that belongs in family dinners, holiday meals, and the recipes that make the whole kitchen smell like home.

I always keep Goya Green Pigeon Peas on our shelves because gandules are essential in Puerto Rican and Caribbean cooking. These are already prepared and ready to use, so you can spend less time cooking the peas and more time building flavor with your sofrito, sazón, and family recipe.

• Goya Green Pigeon Peas (Gandules Verdes) — Tender green pigeon peas with a mild, earthy flavor that works beautifully in rice dishes, soups, and stews.
• Made for arroz con gandules — This is one of the first uses my customers think of. Combine Goya Gandules Verdes with rice, sofrito, sazón, and your favorite seasonings for a Puerto Rican classic.
• Ready to use — No soaking dried pigeon peas overnight. Drain if your recipe calls for it and add them directly to your dish.
• More than rice — Use Goya Green Pigeon Peas in asopao, soups, stews, guisos, and other Caribbean family recipes.
• Convenient 15 oz can — A practical pantry size for everyday meals and especially useful when you're preparing a Puerto Rican holiday spread.
• A brand my customers know — Goya is a familiar name in Puerto Rican kitchens, and gandules are one of those staples I make sure we keep on the shelf.
