what is in posole
Posole, also spelled pozole, is a Mexican soup (stew) from pre-Columbian times made with hominy, peppers and some sort of meat. Most of the time you see posole made with a tough cut of pork like the shoulder but Paula tells me she sometimes makes it with chicken or turkey which cuts down the cooking time by a lot. We made this posole with pork shoulder but at the end I added some cut up boneless chicken thighs to make it a little thicker.
