You can’t cook a savory meal without seasonings or spices. Loisa, a brand known for its organic seasoning blends, spices and cooking sauces brings all the Latin flavors to your meals. It was created by Kenny Luna, who is Dominican and Peruvian-American, and Scott Hattis, who doesn’t have Latin roots but was inspired by his wife’s Dominican heritage. Yadira Garcia, a Dominican-American community chef, food activist and educator, is also the owner of the brand. Together, they teamed up to create a healthier sazón (seasoning), adobo and sofrito free of artificial ingredients.
I’ve used Loisa seasonings in my own cooking and have enjoyed how they can be used for all kinds of meat, vegetables and rice. Besides bringing an abundance of flavors to your meals, Loisa also likes to give back to the community and, each month, donates 2% of its sales to an organization fighting food insecurities.
“While Loisa is inspired by family, culture and community, we created a brand that is rooted in inclusivity and accessibility for all,” chef Garcia tells CNET. She adds that Loisa’s ability to elevate many dishes is in itself a universal love language. If you’re looking to try the various seasonings and products Loisa has to offer, you can purchase them online, at select supermarkets, Sprouts Farmers Market and, most recently, Whole Foods. You can also use the store locator to find a shop that sells them in your area.
Additionally, the Loisa website sells its own merchandise, kitchenware and gift sets.
