Pork and Hominy Stew

This pork hominy stew, also known as pozole, is a delicious southwestern delicacy. I moved it to the slow cooker so it can simmer away on its own. The rich, brothy soup is delicious, much like a tamale in a bowl.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups water
  • 1 large poblano pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) fire-roasted diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2 pounds boneless country-style pork ribs, cubed
  • 1 can (29 ounces) hominy, rinsed and drained
  • 2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • optional: fried tortilla strips, cubed avocado, sliced radishes, lime wedges and cilantro leaves

Directions:

  1. In a saucepan, combine water, poblano and jalapeno. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat; cool slightly. Place mixture in a blender. Add tomatoes, onion, garlic, cumin and oregano; cover and process until smooth.
  2. Transfer to a 5- or 6-qt. slow cooker. Stir in pork, hominy, broth, lime juice, salt and pepper. Cook, covered, on low 6-8 hours or until pork is tender. If desired, serve with optional ingredients.

Italian Snacking Bread

This is a version of Focaccia alla Barese, an Italian flatbread topped with anchovies, olives, and onions. Mine is a softer, moister bread due to the addition of egg and a quicker rise. Cut it in small pieces and pack it for a ride or simply enjoy it on the deck with a lovely glass of wine. (And for those of you who think you don't like anchovies, you'll probably never even realize that they're there!)
