The original Pozole is made using dried Hominy and the pig’s head and neck bones. Dried hominy (hulled and dried kernels of corn) adds an incomparable corn flavor to this soup, but canned hominy is commonly used as a substitute. We are using canned hominy in this recipe since it is available at the supermarkets here in the States and buying dried Hominy and pig’s head meat is hard to find. This recipe is for a red pozole, even though in Mexico we also have white (with out the red sauce) and green pozole adding Salsa Verde. And yes, you can use chicken instead of pork for the soup if you prefer.

Finally the last stop is the great Mexico city, a huge city with new culinary experiences around every corner in Mexico City after visiting
Real Mexican style Mexican food What is the best Mexican restaurant in Oklahoma City today? I have been to a lot of Mexican restaurants here in Oklahoma, and not the Tex-Mex type of food. I hate it when Tex-Mex restaurants say they are authentic Mexican food. There are three different Mexican restaurants in Oklahoma that I prefer over the others.

Coming from a Mexican family I knew what true Mexican food tasted like that’s all I ever ate, since I have memory of. This is why I find it so difficult moving from el Paso to Colorado and not having authentic Mexican restaurants, these called “Mexican restaurants” in Colorado should be called American Mexican food.

Influence of Mexican Cuisine in North America When Americans speak about Mexican food, they are usually referring to the concept of the Tex-Mex or Cal-Mex fast food cooking, which is extremely popular along the border between the US and Mexico. Also the food of the southwestern state of New Mexico and the dishes of many of the Native American peoples, employ similar dish names to many Tex-Mex and some Mexican dishes, but use different flavorings and cooking techniques. The well known names like chili, fajitas, salsa, tortilla chips, corn chips, chimichangas, quesadillas, burritos, nachos and margaritas are home grown American inventions. Even dishes that exist in Mexico like enchiladas, tacos and tamales are cooked and served differently in the US. Americans have loved Mexican food for more than 125 years.
Corn is generally used in many meals. Most foods are fried in oil. Other dishes served are enchiladas, tortillas, and vigorón (vegetables and pork skins). People usually use knives and forks but will also use tortillas to scoop their food. The economy of Nicaragua is VERY poor.
Although these restaurants fall under the same roof of fast food, they have noticeably different characteristics in healthy choice menu items. They differ considerably in variety and presentation of healthy alternatives, and both offer a myriad of salad choices as the healthy food staple. The most unbelievable breakthrough in these two restaurants was the addition of healthy burger alternatives to the menu. Wendy’s has one sandwich to offer- The Ultimate Chicken Grill- that brags only 6.5 grams of fat when covered with all savoury toppings. Even though they only offer one healthy sandwich option, Wendy’s has always been the head in the plan of various healthy meals.
