POZOLE VERDE DE HONGO
This dish was inspired by the traditional indigenous practices I learned growing up as a danzante in a group of ceremonial concheros (practitioners of ritual pre-Columbian dances). This green pozole is expected at every one of our ceremonies, no matter the weather. In our tradition, the day of the dead ceremony lasts all night, ending the next day in a traditional limpia (spiritual cleansing ritual). This dish is that perfect balance of filling and light, helping us last through the night to dance the next day. The term pozole comes from the Nahuatl word pozolli or pozon, which loosely translates to soup or boil using hominy or nixtamalli, a staple that has been part of our cuisine for thousands of years. I've remixed this dish, which traditionally features pork or chicken, into a vegetarian version with mushrooms as the centerpiece.

Steps:
- Prep the fixings: Put the cabbage and radishes in a large bowl with 1/2 cup of water and a dash of salt. Squeeze over the juice of 1 of the limes.
- To make the salsa verde, roast the tomatillos, poblano peppers and jalapeño on the stovetop directly over the gas flame at medium-high heat until they are a little charred all around, about 4 minutes. Remove the seeds and stems from the poblanos and jalapeño.
- Into a blender or food processor, add the garlic, cilantro leaves, 1/2 cup of the vegetable broth, half the onion, the poblano peppers, jalapeño, tomatillos, juice of remaining lime, 1/2 teaspoon each of the garlic powder, onion powder and cumin and salt and pepper to taste and puree until liquified.
- Put the hominy in a large pot with the remaining vegetable broth, 4 cups water and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes or to preferred hominy consistency.
- In a separate pan over medium heat, add the oil. Saute the mushrooms and remaining onions with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder and cumin and salt and pepper to taste for 5 minutes, just to flavor the mushrooms a little.
- Add the salsa verde, sautéed mushrooms and onions and spinach to the pot with the hominy and give it a good mix until the spinach wilts slightly and warms through. Serve in bowls and garnish the top with the shredded cabbage and sliced radish. Grab a spoon and dip in your favorite rolled-up corn tortilla!
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.
POZOLE VERDE WITH SHRIMP
Pozole comes in the three colors of the Mexican flag: green, white and red. Pozole blanco is known for its rich pork broth. As a rule of thumb, blanco is for pozole purists. Pozole rojo is known for its beautiful crimson, chile-forward flavors, and it's the signature traditional pozole for a reason. But I think pozole verde takes the cake with its complex broth made with pumpkin seeds, cilantro and tomatillo. This green variation tastes like it was cooking for hours and hours but comes together in just about an hour. Pozole verde hails from the state of Guerrero located in Mexico's Pacific coast. It is traditionally served with pork and topped with chunks of chicharrón. In this version, I use shrimp instead of pork for a lighter summer version of the dish. The plump shrimp shines against the backdrop of the rich nutty broth, the brightness from the tomatillos and herbs and the mellow heat from the fresh serrano chile.

Steps:
- Fill a large stockpot with 6 cups of water and bring to a boil. Add the hominy, bay leaves and 1 teaspoon salt and lower the heat to a simmer. Cook until the hominy is tender and slightly puffed, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add the sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, tortillas and 2 cups water to a blender and puree until smooth.
- When the hominy are puffed, add the pumpkin seed mixture to the stockpot and stir to combine. Simmer on low as you prepare the salsa verde.
- To make the salsa verde, add the tomatillos, cilantro, garlic, serrano, yellow onion and 1 cup water to the same blender and puree until smooth. You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your blender.
- Add the oil to a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot and shimmering, carefully add the salsa verde and cinnamon stick. Partially cover the skillet with a lid until the salsa stops splattering and starts to simmer slowly. Uncover the skillet and continue to cook until the salsa is dark green and starts to thicken, about 15 minutes.
- Transfer the salsa verde and cinnamon to the stockpot with the hominy mixture and continue to simmer to allow the flavors to meld, 15 to 20 minutes. You may notice that the mixture separates just a bit, but it will come together as it simmers. Taste and season with salt, about 1 tablespoon. Using a slotted spoon, remove the cinnamon stick and bay leaves. The broth should have a slightly thickened consistency, like heavy cream. If it's too thin, cook for 5 to 10 minutes more. If it's too thick, add 1/2 cup water.
- Slice the shrimp in half crosswise and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Remove the stockpot from the heat and immediately add the shrimp to the stockpot. The shrimp will cook with the carryover heat, turning pink and being fully cooked in 3 to 5 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon, scoop some of the hominy and shrimp mixture into deep bowls, about 1 cup per serving. Ladle some of the verde broth into each bowl and garnish with radishes, red onion, avocado, cabbage and a pinch of dried oregano. Serve with tostadas and lime wedges.
POSOLE VERDE
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 (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.

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.
