Green Pozole with Tomatillo and Pork

A hearty Mexican soup where slow-braised pork and hominy swim in a deeply flavored green broth built on tomatillos, poblanos, and herbs. Pozole verde is one of the great comfort foods of Mexican-American cooking — rich, warming, and served with a table full of toppings so everyone customizes their bowl. This is a weekend project that's worth every minute.

Tomatillo Guacamole

Guacamole elevated with finely diced fresh tomatillos that add a bright, tangy snap to each bite — a revelation for anyone who thought standard guacamole couldn't be improved. The tomatillos bring acidity, freshness, and a textural interest that makes this guacamole genuinely special. Make it at the peak of summer when both avocados and tomatillos are at their best.
