NEW MEXICAN POSOLE



New Mexican Posole image

I've been making this pork posole stew for years. It's simple to put together and fills the house with wonderful smells. I sometimes add a couple potatoes and carrots to get the southwestern equivalent of Beef Stew. Source is an out-of-print cookbook called "Blue Corn and Chocolate"

Time 2h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4-1 1/2 lbs lean boneless pork, cut in very small cubes
2 cups hominy, canned drained
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
2 large dried New Mexico chiles, seeded
3 garlic cloves, crushed
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon cumin
3 -4 cups cold water
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)

Steps:

  • Combine all the ingredients, except the salt and hominy in a pot.
  • Simmer the stew over low to moderate heat, uncovered, for 2 - 3 hours until the meat is very tender. If the mixture becomes too dry while cooking, add more water. (About mid way through this time, I fish out the chiles and gently scrape the now fully reconstituted inner flesh from the paper like skins. Stir the chile flesh back into the stew and throw the skins away.) About 1/2 hour before the stew is done add canned hominy.
  • When posole is done, add salt to taste. The stew should be a sort of soupy stew, best served like chili, in bowls.

POZOLE (MEXICAN PORK AND HOMINY STEW)



Pozole (Mexican pork and hominy stew) image

Pierre Franey, who for decades was an integral contributor to The Times's food report, delivered this recipe for pozole in 1983. At the time, he said: "A genuine pozole is a tedious but incredibly simple food, rather like a hearty soup, made of pork and hominy (the dried kernels of corn). It is served with the cooking liquid plus assorted garnishes, including chopped onion, ground hot chilies, sliced radishes, shredded lettuce and lime wedges, which are passed at the table and added according to taste." Which doesn't sound tedious at all. Still, he designed this recipe so that it could be cooked within an hour.

4 pork chops, about 1 1/2 pounds
2 chicken legs plus thighs, about 1 1/2 pounds
6 cups water
1 onion, about 1/4 pound, peeled and quartered
1 large clove garlic, peeled
Salt to taste if desired
2 tablespoons chopped hot green chilies, optional (see note)

2 1/2 cups drained canned hominy, available in shops and supermarkets that deal in Spanish and Puerto Rican foods

12 radishes
1 lime
1/2 cup finely chopped Bermuda onion

Steps:

  • Cut bones from chops but reserve both meat and bones. Cut meat into one-inch cubes. Put meat and bones in small kettle and add chicken legs and thighs. Add water, quartered onion, garlic, salt, chilies and peppercorns. Bring to boil and cook, uncovered, 45 minutes or until meat is quite tender. Remove pork and chicken.
