Pozole

A substantial soup or stew built around hominy: large kernels of nixtamalized corn. Pork and chicken are common. Pozole rojo gets its color and flavor from red chiles, verde from green ingredients that can include tomatillos, green chiles, herbs and seeds, while blanco leaves the broth comparatively plain. It is usually served with a generous collection of garnishes such as shredded cabbage or lettuce, radish, onion, oregano, lime and tostadas. Pozole is strongly associated with celebrations, holidays and weekend meals.
