A key ingredient in the hearty Mexican soup known as pozole is hominy, or dried corn kernels cooked in an alkali solution. Hominy has a satisfying and subtle chewiness and a mild sweetness. It's sold in cans, often in the Latin foods section of the supermarket. If you're up for offering more garnishes for your pozole, shredded cabbage or radishes add color and crunch.
Tip
Don't use chili powder, which is a blend of ground chilies, herbs and spices. Ancho chili powder, the type called for here, is simply ground ancho chilies, without any added ingredients. It gives the pozole a pure, deep chili flavor.
