How to make it
- In a sauce pan, combine the pork cubes and salt with the water. Bring
- to a boil, reduce the heat to medium and simmer gently, uncovered,
- until barely tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let
- the pork cool in the liquid. Drain, reserving the liquid in a bowl.
- Set the meat aside, covering it with a damp towel.
- Place the ancho chilies in the reserved warm cooking liquid and let
- soak for 20 minutes. Transfer the liquid and chilies to a blender. Add
- the garlic and cumin and puree. Set aside.
- In a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, warm the vegetable oil. Add
- the onion and saute until lightly golden, about 10 minutes. Add the
- pureed chili mixture, hominy, tomatoes and chicken or pork stock, adding more
- stock if needed for a more soupy consistency. Stir in the reserved
- pork. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer
- gently, uncovered, until the pork is fork-tender, about 30 minutes.
- Taste and adjust the seasonings.
- Ladle the stew into warmed shallow bowls. Arrange the garnishes in
- small bowls and let guests add to the stew to taste.
