my best Posole recipe!!





6 Servings


PREP TIME: 30 min


COOK TIME: 2 hr


This dish is even better when served the next day.


2 pounds pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch chunks


1 teaspoon salt


Freshly ground pepper


1 teaspoon ground cumin


1 teaspoon dried oregano, plus more for garnish


1 to 2 tablespoons canned chipotle chiles in adobo


sauce pur茅ed with 4 tablespoons water


Two 30-ounce cans hominy


1 bay leaf


2 medium onions, 1 finely chopped, 1 diced


2 large garlic cloves, chopped


1 bunch of cilantro, stemmed, plus 2 tablespoons chopped


6 radishes, thinly sliced


1 large or 2 small ripe Hass avocados, diced


2 limes, cut into wedges


Corn tortillas, warmed in the oven





1. In a large, heavy saucepan or enameled cast-iron casserole, combine the pork, salt, pepper, cumin, oregano and chipotle puree (to control the spiciness, start with 1 tablespoon; you can always add more later). Add the liquid from the canned hominy along with the bay leaf and enough water to just cover the meat (about 2 cups). Bring the soup to a boil and skim off any foam that comes to the surface. Reduce the heat, add the finely chopped onion and cook the soup, covered, at a low simmer for 1 hour.


2. Add the hominy to the soup, turn the heat up a little and cook, uncovered, at moderately low heat until the pork is tender and the liquid has thickened slightly but is still soupy, about 50 minutes. (Posole is typically eaten with a spoon. If the soup becomes too thick, you can add water to recover that delicious broth.) Ten minutes before the soup is done, stir in the chopped garlic. Before serving, add the chopped cilantro.


3. Assemble dishes of cilantro leaves, diced onion, dried oregano, sliced radishes and diced avocado; let guests garnish their own steaming bowls of posole. Serve with the lime wedges (for squeezing over the posole) and the warm tortillas on the side.





try it and good luck!Looking for best posole recipe?
Posole is about the easiest soup you make. When I was a teen the Mexican lady down the street always brought us some with Tamales on Christmas Eve.


She used pork neck bones but any pork bones with some meat would work.


3 Lb. neck bones,


4 dried New Mexico Chilis ( 3 Ancho is ok )


1 med. onion. cubed


Place all three in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer. About 3 hours or when meat is falling of the bone.


Remove bones and strain.


She used canned Hominy.


Add 3 large cans hominy, drained. Salt to taste.


Serve with finely shredded cabbage.and onions.


Some people serve with shredded lettuce. I know some people like sour cream with it too but I don't

    1 teaspoon baking powder


    1 teaspoon baking soda


    1 teaspoon cinnamon


    1/2 teaspoon salt


    1 cup shortening


    1 cup sugar

    1/2 cup brown sugar


    3/4 teaspoon vanilla


    1 cup powdered sugar





    Sift dry ingredients together. Cream shortening and sugar. Add pumpkin and egg. Gradually add dry ingredients and vanilla. Drop by teaspoonful on ungreased cookie sheets and bake at 350掳 for 10-12 minutes. Frost when cool.





    Combine first three frosting ingredients in medium saucepan. Boil, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Allow to cool. Stir in vanilla and powdered sugar; beat until smooth. Dip cooled cookies into frosting, place on waxed paper to set.





    The frosting part gets a little messy - but they're worth it! Note though, these are very soft, cake-like cookies that don't stack well in a cookie jar. Best if kept on a platter of sorts and covered so they don't get stale.

    KICKED UP TOLL HOUSE COOKIES





    1/3 cup butter flavored Crisco


    1/4 cup lard (may substitute Crisco)


    3/4 stick butter


    1 cup white granulated sugar


    1/3 cup dark brown sugar, packed


    1 Tablespoon blackstrap molasses


    1/4 teaspoon ground ginger


    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon


    1/8 teaspoon allspice


    2 eggs


    1 teaspoon baking soda


    1/4 teaspoon baking powder


    2 tablespoons rum


    1 teaspoon vanilla


    1/2 cup raisins and/or craisins


    3/4 cup chopped pecans, walnuts, or macadamias


    1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips


    1 scant teaspoon salt


    2 1/4 cups flour


    1/3 cup oatmeal





    In a mixer, combine Crisco, lard, and butter, and whip until light. Crisco and lard are combined to create a cookie which doesn't spread too thinly, has a slightly crispy exterior, and a soft chewy center. The butter is for flavor. Substitute at your own risk!


    Slowly add the white granulated sugar and continue beating until very light and fluffy. Stir in the spices, baking powder and salt. Add the two eggs and mix only to combine. In a separate bowl, add hot water to the brown sugar along with the baking soda. When dissolved, add this to the sugar and spice mixture to combine. Add the oatmeal.





    Slowly stir in the flour, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Stir in the rum and vanilla. Limit your mixing of the dough to about one minute once the flour has been added, in order to avoid a tough cookie. Stir in the chocolate, nuts, and raisins.





    Using two spoons, drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets and bake in pre-heated 375 degree oven on the middle shelf until cookies are lightly browned along edges and barely golden on top. This will take about 7-10 minutes depending on the size of each cookie and the temperature of your oven.

    Whats the best pudding recipe youve ever made?

    I love creme brulee so I made some myself. The recipe is as below:





    Ingredients


    500ml/18fl oz double cream


    1 vanilla pod


    100g/4oz caster sugar (plus extra for the topping)


    6 egg yolks





    Method


    1. Pre-heat the oven to 140C/275F/Gas 1.


    2. Pour the cream into a saucepan. Split the vanilla pod lengthwise and scrape the seeds into the cream.


    3. Chop the empty pod into bits, and add them to the cream.


    4. Bring to boiling point, then lower the heat and simmer gently for five minutes.


    5. Beat the sugar and egg yolks together in a large heat-proof bowl until pale and creamy.


    6. Bring the cream back to boiling point. Pour it over the egg mixture, whisking all the time until thickened - this indicates that the eggs have begun to cook slightly.


    7. Strain through a fine sieve into a large jug, and then use this to fill six ramekins about two-thirds full.


    8. Place the ramekins in a large roasting tray and pour in enough hot water to come halfway up their sides.


    9. Place on the centre shelf of the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the custards are just set and are still a bit wobbly in the middle.


    10. Remove from the water and allow to cool to room temperature.


    11. When ready to serve, sprinkle one level teaspoon of caster sugar evenly over the surface of each cr茅me, then caramelise with a mini blowtorch.


    12. Leave to cool for a couple of minutes, then serve.Whats the best pudding recipe youve ever made?

    4 cups dashi (Japanese stock - see below for recipe)





    Salt the little chicken cubes lightly, then simmer in water until just barely tender. Remove from heat and reserve.


    Bring the dashi to a simmer, then add the chicken pieces and shiitake mushroom slices. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes. Strain out the chicken and mushrooms and arrange evenly and in patterns in the 4 soup bowls. Ladle the hot dashi over these bits, sprinkle each bowl with thinly sliced leeks, cover with lids, and serve immediately.





    There are many types of dashi - this is one:


    Shiitake Mushroom Soup Stock


    4 cups and 1/4 cup water


    4 large hoshi-shiitake (dried shiitake mushrooms)





    Put water and hoshi-shiitake mushrooms in a deep pot and soak for 10 minutes. Heat on medium heat and bring to a boil. Stop the heat. Let it set for 20 minutes and strain the broth. Use the shiitake mushrooms for cooking.
