Hi all,

New Years' Day dinner for us was the pozole rojo posted by green from the
Epicurious website.  Using the last of the Christmas turkey stock and some
lean stewing pork (only thing left in the supermarket), this was a really
healthy way to mend the head after the night before.  The New Mex chiles
suggested were perfect for the balance of the dish: we just did as usual and
seeded the chiles, only soaked for about 15-20 minutes, then sieved the
blended puree to remove the skin parts.  But CHers know that.  The use of
iceberg lettuce and crispy tortilla strips wasn't authentic, perhaps, but it
gives a fresh, yuppy, dinner-party feel to the dish.  We made half
quantities, so we'd have some for dinner tonight as well, but we ate it all
up instead. Yum.  Thanks, green, for calling my attention to this dish.

Also a late thanks to Mike for his Chipotle and Cranberry Compote which all
the Americans raved about over Thanksgiving.  We here in England had to wait
for Christmas to have it with roast turkey but it is now our house cranberry
sauce.  Thanks so much, Mike.


Happy Noo Yar,

Virginia
