Hominy and tri-bean stew by Tina Galhaut
Tomatoes roasted with serrano and poblano peppers lend spice and richness to the dish.
Hominy and tri-bean stew can be garnished with radish, cheese, lime, cilantro, tortilla strips and other toppings.
Hominy, beans and a medley of peppers are the backbone to this vegetable version of the Mexican stew, pozole.
This is my vegetable-based version of the traditional Mexican pozole — which I crave in every season! I roast fresh peppers with tomatillos and tomatoes, instead of using the traditional dried peppers for the spicy base, and I use hearty seasonal vegetables instead of pork. Using an organic chicken stock gives the stew a “meaty” feel and flavor when the weather is cold. I use a vegetable stock in the summer for a lighter version.
