HEB supermarkets are the main distributor of Aldonza products in United States. You can buy our wines, cavas, olive oil and saffron in their different shopping centers, distributed mainly in the state of Texas. Also, HEB has a extensive list of recipes on its website.

Although extra virgin olive oil is a product used mainly in the Mediterranean diet, it is increasingly accepted in Texan recipes. The same thing happens with saffron and wines. The recipe book that HEB proposes on its website is extensive. We can find from classic dishes to newer recipes with less known ingredients. We have selected three recipes for you. However, you can consult the complete list of HEB recipes on this link.
