Thank you, Sonia! Likewise. I love your posts about Mexican food. Unfortunately, I can't try many of your dishes because of limited access to ingredients here in Argentina, but that doesn't stop me from imagining what they must taste like! :)

Ray A. said… Yes, chicken and pork (the other white meat) lol! My mother showed me how to make this, well, actually it was my favorite so I always watched her when I could, because it is such a long process. We use equal parts pork and chicken, which is common around Los Angeles, so use enough chicken for a 4 to 5 lb pork butt, it makes a lot, but you can make half or freeze half for later. I was taught to make my chile sauce with chile California or New Mexico and add a garlic clove along with the salt in the blending process, because we use the sauce for a lot of other things like enchiladas by adding comino to it, and for tamales as well. It freezes great. The key to the flavor that I just can't get enough of is to add about 8 to 10 chicken bouillon cubes (I use Knorr) to it.
So sad that your Mom is no longer with you. I dread the day when my Mom is no longer with me, and I cherish the time I spend with her. I have pretty much gotten all the info out of her that I can for the food I grew up on. I just love talking to people and learning about the food of my heritage. :)

Wow, sad. I don't know what I would do if I lived somewhere that didn't have a Latino based grocery store. I guess I'm so used to having them at my disposal. It's nice when they compete against each other too. :) I make my pozole the same way you do except I also use chicken.
