Recipe: How to Make Authentic Mexican Red Posole

I love to eat. LOVE it. In fact, I typically list it as one of my hobbies. True story.

So growing up, I would ask for a pot full of posole for my birthday. I would eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner and midnight snack – I love this meal that much.

I’ve always said if I could have one super power it would be to make delicious food magically appear. I am delighted to share this family recipe with you.

Ingredients

• 1 can of Mexican hominy
• 2 lbs of espinazo de puerco, like pork ribs but cut crosswise
• 2 lbs of boneless pork chunks
• 3 dry chiles Guajillos

Instructions

1. Wash all of your meat and cut the pork into smaller pieces as needed.
2. Place the pork in a pot, covered in water, at a low flame with half the onion and the half head of garlic.
3. While that's cooking, remove the seeds from your dried chiles and wash the chiles.
4. Next, place your chiles in a small pot and bring to a boil for 10 minutes.
5. Place your chiles, ½ the garlic head, ½ onion, 1 cube of Knor Suiza and salt (to your taste) in a blender using the same water from the boiled chiles.
6. Once thoroughly blended, pour the mixture into the pot with the pork meat using a colander. Leave it on a low heat for 1 hour 30 minutes.
7. Once that time has passed, add the can of hominy to the pot, cover halfway and let simmer an additional 45 minutes, or until the pork meat is thoroughly cooked.
