“Pozole Zacatecano” (cross between a soup and a stew) Recipe
Ingredients:
- ½ kg of cacahuazintle corn, preferably red
- 1 ½ kg of pork meat, preferably cut into small pieces
- 1 kg of split backbone
- ¼ kg of guajillo red chile soaked in hot water
- 4 large garlic
- 1 chopped onion
- 2 ground chiles de árbol
- ½ cabbage sliced
- 4 lemons
- 4 radishes
- oregano to taste
- lime
- salt to taste
Directions:
Cook the corn in water with a teaspoon of lime. When it has softened, it is washed. Try to carve the corn so that the skin falls off. Immediately put it back on the fire until is cooked or until it is fluffy and the grain is open.
Wash the meat very well and cook it together with the backbone. When the meat is already soft, add the chili that was previously ground with the garlic. You have to pass through a fine-mesh strainer, pressing on the mixture with a spatula. Add the salt. Cook for another 10 to 15 minutes.
Cut the lemons in half, chop the onion and cut the radishes into flower shapes or slices and serve in bowls, along with the chile de árbol and oregano.
The pozole is served hot accompanied by all the other ingredients.
