The red pozole will complement a balanced and delicious menu. Whether in May, Christmas or another special date.

In Mexican cuisine, pozole is one of the most consumed dishes. In Nahuatl it means “boiled” or “sparkling” and the Mexicas said that the cacahuazintle corn turned into white flowers when it burst.

At first, the Mexicas prepared it for religious purposes and human meat, the best piece was offered to the tlatoani or ruler, but with the arrival of the Spaniards, it was made with pork. Over time, each state in the country developed its own recipe.
