POZOLE VERDE (MEXICAN HOMINY AND CHICKEN)
A traditional Mexican pozole as printed in our local newspaper today. Nixtamal is dried corn cooked with food-grade lime until it can be hulled. The softened, cooked corn can then be ground into masa for tortillas or tamales. Or it is left whole and cooked further to make pozole by putting the corn into a pot, adding water, and simmering until the kernels "pop" open. Canned hominy may be substituted, but since it's processed slightly differently the flavor isn't quite identical. Mexican-style canned hominy brands such as Juanita's and El Mexicano are processed in the traditional manner. Cooking time may be reduced if canned hominy is used. Supermarkets that stock Latino foods usually carry both canned Mexican-style hominy and fresh nixtamal, which is usually packed in 2 to 5 pound bags and found in the refrigerated section. It's also available at most tortillerias.

- Rinse nixtamal thoroughly in a strainer.
- Pour into large Dutch oven or heavy lidded pot, add 4 quarts water and bring to boil.
- Simmer gently, loosely covered about 2 hours, or until tender.

- Rinse the pot and return cooked nixtamal to pot.
- Wash poblano chiles and discard stems and seeds.
- Cut into chunks.
- Wash cilantro and cut off tips of stems.
- Place chiles and cilantro in blender with a cup of water and whirl.
- Slice one of the onions.
- Add chile-cilantro puree, chicken broth, sliced onion, garlic cloves and 4 1/2 teaspoons of salt to nixtamal.
- Stir to combine, bring to boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Add chicken and cook 15 more minutes.
- Dice remaining onion and place in small bowl.
- Arrange lettuce, serrano chiles, lime wedges and oregano in separate bowls, and crisp tortillas in basket or bowl.

POZOLE VERDE CON POLLO
In Mexico, dishes can be interpreted in so many different ways depending on your sazón (personal taste), what part of the country you live in and what fruits and vegetables grow there. Pozole verde is a dish that I have always loved, and anywhere I travel in Mexico, I need to try it.

Steps:
- Heat the bacon fat in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the poblanos, jalapeños, scallion whites, pepitas, garlic, cumin, coriander, allspice and salt. (Use 3 tablespoons Diamond Crystal kosher salt or 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon Morton kosher salt.) Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are just tender, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatillos and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until they soften and begin to brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Remove the pot from the heat. Working in batches, transfer some of the vegetable mixture to a blender, add some of the chicken broth and puree. Transfer the pureed mixture to a large bowl and continue until all the vegetables and broth have been blended. Return the pureed mixture to the pot and add the hominy. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium low, cover and simmer until the flavors come together, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the cilantro, scallion greens and 2 cups water in the blender (you don't need to rinse it out!). Puree until completely smooth.
- Add the chicken and cilantro puree to the stew, remove from the heat and stir. Let sit until the chicken is heated through. Serve the pozole with the onion, radishes, avocado, chicharrones, oregano and lime wedges.

Steps:
- For the pork and stock: Cook the pork butt with 2 cups of the julienned onions, 5 cloves of the garlic and 5 cups water until the pork is cooked through, about 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a pot, combine the tomatillos and jalapenos and cover with water. Simmer for 20 minutes. Drain, reserving the tomatillos, jalapenos and 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
- Saute the remaining 2 cups onions and 3 cloves garlic in some of the canola oil until golden brown. Transfer to a blender and add the cumin and reserved tomatillos, jalapenos and 1 cup cooking liquid and blend until smooth. Put the remaining canola oil in a pot and heat until smoking. Add the tomatillo mixture to the pot and cook for 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock and cook for another 15 minutes.
- When the pork is cooked, season with salt. Pull out the pork and discard all that remains. Add the pork and hominy to the pot with the tomatillo broth and cook for an additional 10 minutes. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
- For serving: Ladle the soup into bowls and top with some cabbage, white onions, Mexican cheese, cilantro and fried tortilla.
POZOLE VERDE
Pozole is a hearty hominy-based stew from Mexico that has numerous iterations. In this green version, tart and tangy ingredients like tomatillos, cilantro, and lime balance rich, fatty pork shoulder.

Steps:
- Season pork with 2 tablespoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place in a pot with broth, half the onion, garlic, and 10 cups water. Bring to a boil, skimming impurities from surface. Reduce heat to low; stir in bay leaves, cloves, and oregano. Simmer, partially covered, until pork is fork-tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Remove onion, garlic, bay leaves, and cloves.
- Meanwhile, combine remaining onion, tomatillos, poblanos, jalapenos, cilantro, and oil in a blender; puree until smooth. Transfer to a saucepan and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly and deep green, 12 to 15 minutes. Stir into soup with hominy and simmer for 10 minutes. Serve with jalapeno, cilantro, avocado, radishes, cabbage, lime wedges, and tortillas.
POZOLE VERDE
In most towns in Mexico, street vendors set up food stalls on summer evenings. Head for the pozole stand for bowls of brothy pozole verde, a stew of large hominy kernels simmered with pork. As opposed to pozole rojo, made with red chiles, this lighter, herby version makes a great summer supper. Set out bowls of condiments - chopped onion, cilantro, chopped chiles, avocado and oregano - so each diner can customize. A squeeze of lime for each serving is vital.

Steps:
- Drain pozole and transfer to a large soup pot. Add water to cover by 3 inches and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to a simmer, add garlic and cook pozole for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, until kernels are tender and beginning to burst. Add 1 tablespoon kosher salt halfway through cooking and be sure to keep the cooking liquid topped up. (Pozole kernels may be cooked in advance, up to 1 day ahead.)
- Season pork well with salt and pepper. Place in large soup pot and cover with 12 cups water. Add onion, bay leaves and cloves. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, covered with lid ajar, until very tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Combine cooked pozole (with broth) and cooked pork (with broth) in one pot. Simmer for 15 minutes, then add tomatillos, chayote, zucchini and corn and cook for 5 minutes more. Taste broth and adjust seasoning. Add a little more water if necessary to keep a soupy consistency.
- Serve in large bowls. Pass garnishes separately.

Steps:
- Combine tomatillos and garlic in a medium saucepan, pour in water to cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until tomatillos are mushy and soft but not falling apart, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer tomatillos, garlic, and 1 cup cooking liquid to a blender. Add poblano chiles, serrano chile (if using), pumpkin seeds, 1 cup cilantro, 1 cup parsley, 3 Tbsp. white onion, 1 cup broth, and 1 tsp. salt. Purée until smooth; set aside. (Work in batches if needed, or blend directly in saucepan with an immersion blender if you have one.)
- Heat oil in a large pot over high. Once it's hot, but not smoking, add mushrooms and sprinkle pepper and remaining ½ tsp. salt over; toss to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms release all of their liquid and it evaporates and edges of mushrooms begin to brown, 8-10 minutes.
- Pour tomatillo purée into pot, reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, until purée thickens and darkens in color, about 10 minutes.
- Add hominy and remaining 5 cups broth to pot, stir to combine, and cook until flavors have come together, 12-15 minutes. Taste and season pozole with more salt if needed.
- Serve pozole verde with radishes, lime wedges, dried oregano, more white onion, cilantro, and parsley alongside so guests can top their bowl as desired.
- Cook's Note: To cook dried hominy: Place 1 cup hominy in a small bowl and pour in water to cover. Let soak 2-12 hours. Drain, place in a pot, and cover with a generous amount of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and partially cover. Simmer until top of each hominy blooms and opens up from the top, 2½-3 hours. Season with kosher salt.
CHICKEN POSOLE VERDE
It is more authentic using chicken breast halves with bones and skin but I wanted to lighten it up a bit. You can top with finely chopped onion, diced avocado, sour cream, tortilla chips and lime wedges- if desired.

Steps:
- In a large pot bring the chicken stock and water to a boil. Add the chicken breasts and simmer over very low heat until they're tender and cooked through, about 25 minutes. Transfer the chicken breasts to a plate and shred the meat.
- In a blender or food processor combine the halved tomatillos with the quartered onion, poblanos and jalapeños, smashed garlic, chopped cilantro and oregano. Pulse until coarsely chopped; stopping occasionally and scraping down the side. With the machine on, add 1 cup of the broth and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a large deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil until shimmering. Add the tomatillo puree and cook over medium heat, until the sauce turns a deep green, stirring occasionally, about 12 minutes.
- Pour the green sauce into the broth in the casserole. Add the hominy and bring to a simmer over moderate heat. Add the shredded chicken to the stew, season with salt and pepper and cook just until heated through.
- Serve the pozole in deep bowls, topping with onion, avocado, sour cream, tortilla chips and lime wedges if desired. We just usually eat it with a sprinkling of tortilla strips.
