Dia de Posole - pozole

Not sure if posole is different from pozole. We have eaten pozole in a variety of different restaurants in Zihua. Santa Prisca is only one of them. You can wear shorts, flip-flops or fancy clothes and drink whatever you wish.

My husband and I usually ask for verde with puerco, but there are a wide variety of ingredients. The main ingredient is pozole - or hominy. It is served with many side dishes of taquitos, chiles, cut-up onions (cebollitas), radishes (rabanitos), limes, cabbage (col), aguacate, oregano, tostadas, epazote, celantro and chicharron (fried pig skin).

Pozole comes from pre-Hispanic nahuatl times. It has been eaten here in the state of Guerrero on Thursdays, which are called "jueves pozolero."
