What Is Green Pozole Made Of?
Green pozole is a traditional Mexican soup made from hominy, a type of corn that has been treated with an alkaline solution to remove the hard outer kernel. The soup is flavored with a variety of ingredients including pork, chicken, garlic, onions, cumin, oregano and chili peppers. The name “green” comes from the use of fresh herbs like cilantro and green onions that are blended with the broth to give it a vibrant green color. It is often served with toppings like avocado slices, shredded cabbage, radish, and lime wedges.
