Hogao

(Criollo sauce)

Hogao is a traditional sauce that is commonly used as a seasoning, dipping sauce, or topping. The savory combination of tomatoes, scallions, coriander, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper is sautéed until the vegetables become tender and aromatic.


This flavorful sauce is typically served with various meat dishes, arepas, and rice. It can also be served as an accompaniment to the famous bandeja paisa. The name of the sauce is derived from the words ahogar and rehogar, referring to the technique of slow-cooking.
