Lard. Has to be the real stuff. If you don't care about flavor, and want a quick bean side: take a can of pinto beans, drain it but SAVE the juice. Cook it for 5 mins or so and begin mashing it with a bean masher. Add around half the reserved bean water and continue mashing til you get a nice, runny but chunky bean side. yummy.

There are 3 kinds of Pozole, white, red and green.
Red is from Guadalajara, allegedly, home of the Pozole.
Green is traditionally from Guerrero, and my personal favorite.
White is from the center of the country, it is made without chili, and may even be made without pork, so it may be a Little bland.

its the oddest thing to see this dish so lauded along with cochinita pibil two dishes, meals which I have not tasted even once. What makes it odd is that I have lived in mexico for ten years as a businessman with several associates in numerous southern states, even odder is that I live in puebla for months at a time, somehow this chiles dish is fairly uncommon in my circles

fuck I hate fucking autistic californians. Do you know what's also authentic? eating half rotting meat because your colony is running out of food and you're starving to death.

Just because it's 'authentic' doesn't mean its fucking good. Just because mexicans are too poor to add more meat doesn't mean that should restrict us too.
