Pozolé Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Hominy

   Rinse the dried hominy under cold water and soak it overnight in a large pot with enough water to cover. Drain and set aside.

2. 2

   Sauté Vegetables

   In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute.

3. 3

   Add Tomatoes and Spices

   Add the diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Bring to a boil.

4. 4

   Simmer with Hominy

   Add the soaked hominy to the pot. Reduce heat to low and let simmer for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until hominy is tender.

5. 5

   Finish the Stew

   Stir in chopped cilantro, scallions, pickled jalapeños, and crumbled goat cheese just before serving.

6. 6

   Serve

   Ladle the pozole into bowls and top with additional cilantro, scallions, jalapeños, and goat cheese as desired.
