La Preferida Inc — Restaurant in West Chicago Township

There's no shortage of Hispanic food brands here, but La Preferida has all the bases covered; spices; canned specialties; heat and serve, etc. For example, once you've eaten La Preferida Authentic refried beans, you'll never reach for your old brand again. Also, after years of making steamed rice using pricey Asian labels, save money and see better results with La Preferida white rice. Here's the proof; rinse any Asian white rice brand and even after 6 or 7 times changing the water, they're still full of the starch that keeps them sticky. Now just a couple of rinses of La Preferida is all that's needed, and it's ready for your favorite recipe. All their products are superior, and are...

La Preferida's green enchilada sauce is my favorite, not just for enchiladas, but for soup, meatloaf, and an outstanding chip dip!

Just today I bought La Preferida's green chiles, which is another versatile STAPLE in my pantry!

Prices very reasonable, and the flavors are truly authentic. No chemical aftertaste or using excessive capsaicin to fake you out. Everything is balanced; they CARE and take PRIDE in their products. And they value their customers - YOU!

Have fun with La Preferida's many products! Experiment! Encourage the whole family to participate in meal preparation. You could mix a bit of everything they make and it will be delicious!

Have a happy and...

La Preferida took over a favorite recipe of my Mother called Derby Tamales, previously sol in jars since the 1930's. She said these are just the same and was very happy. I made the Black Bean Brownies and they were a big hit with the whole crowd, not just the gluten free gang. These products are sold locally at The Uptown Market and are never in short supply. These goods are fairly and moderately priced. They can be eaten alone or used to compliment each other as single dishes for a Plato Typico or blended to make casserole style meals. Thanks again for making my Mom remember...
