Traditional Red Pozole

Made with pork, dried chiles, and hominy, red pozole is one of the most traditional dishes of Mexican cuisine. This full-bodied Mexican stew is simmered for a long time to develop the rich flavors of the meat while the guajillo and ancho chiles combo adds a mild spicy touch to the soup. Topped with lettuce, onion, and radish, this traditional red pozole is best served hot and is ideal for special occasions.
