POSOLE ORTIZ

Previous

Everyone has his own special recipe for posole. This is the way Willie and June Ortiz prepare it at La Tertulia in Santa Fe—and good it is.

2 cups frozen white posole (hominy)

1 quart water

1 pound pork shoulder or chops

? teaspoon oregano

1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns

? cup chopped onion

4 dried red chile peppers, crumbled

Salt

Mix all ingredients in a large, heavy pot. Bring to a boil and simmer, covered, for about 2½ hours or until the kernels are soft but not mushy. Salt to taste. Serves 4.
