⚠️‼️Suggestion
My blender was over worked! Try step 4 in batches of 3 to assure a smooth blend ????
If using a different blender than a vitamix save 3/4 of a cup of raisin water and 1 cup of Chile water to assist your blend as needed. Not to worry the excess water will dissipate when cooking. Add 15 minutes to cook and stirring time. You got this corazón!
Step 5 cooking on medium heat mostly (Constantly stirring once mole paste touches the pot)
Add 1/2 cup of lard to pot allow to warm up and then add your mole paste
Cook 15 minutes while constantly to avoid burning and even cooking
In a bowl of warm water add desired chocolate bars + piloncillo once dissolved add to mole pot
Cook another 10 to 15 minutes taste and adjust chocolate and piloncillo as needed
Once you achieve desired sweetness add salt adjust to taste and continue storing to complete 45 minutes of stirring
Last 5 to 10 minutes switch heat to low and continue stirring amoricito, don’t quit, you got this babe.
Once paste is cooked set in a bowl and allow to cool a few hours
Place in an air tight container or small freezer bag in portions
If kept clean will last in refrigerator 3+ months
Will last in freezer 6 months to a year if not more ????

Rick Bayless Beginner's Mole
???? Hello to all you new subscribers! Today, I’m going to step you through the beginner’s version of mole poblano, one of the most essential dishes in all of Mexico.
Mole, you say? Doesn’t that take all weekend? Well, yes it does. But not this one.
Jammed with a harmonious balance of dried chiles, nuts, seeds, dried fruit and chocolate, this mole poblano can be ready in about an hour’s time, or more if you want to let the pot simmer awhile.
Key to your success here is preparation: gather your ingredients, read the instructions carefully and let’s get to work.
???????? Recipe:
What to make with this? I love mole poblano over grilled chicken or roasted turkey breast. I especially love it ladled over enchiladas.

***RECIPE, FEEDS 2-3***
An approx. 1 lb (454g) pork tenderloin
4-5 garlic cloves, peeled and lightly crushed
1-2 large shallots, peeled and roughly chopped
2 canned chipotle peppers
1 teaspoon peanut butter or tahini
1 teaspoon (at most) cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon (at most) ground cloves
3/4 teaspoon flour
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1-2 tablespoons any fruit preserves
salt
pepper
oil
2 tablespoons butter
toasted sesame seeds (optional)
For the beans:
6 oz (170g) bag frozen lima beans
1-2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
1 lime
fresh cilantro (optional)
salt
pepper
sugar
Trim silverskin off the pork and season with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick or well-seasoned cast iron pan to medium, and put in a generous coating of oil. Lift the pork into the pan with tongs and keep moving it constantly as you sear all sides — imagine mopping up the oil with the meat. Once all sides have decent color, add in the butter, garlic and shallots, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook the pork, flipping it frequently in the butter, until the interior temperature is 145ºF/63ºC — about 15 minutes total cooking time for a 1 lb tenderloin. Remove the meat and let it rest.
Stir the chipotles into the garlic and shallots and fry them for a minute. Do likewise with the following things, in order: the peanut butter, cocoa powder, remaining spices, flour and tomato paste. Deglaze with at least a cup of water and allow the sauce to simmer and reduce until it's quite thick. Turn the heat off, stir in the fruit preserves, and taste for seasoning. Either eat the sauce chunky, puree it, or push it through a sieve.
Transfer the sauce to a bowl and give the pan a quick rinse. Over medium, heat the sesame oil and stir in the frozen lima beans. When they're thawed and just starting to brown, turn off the heat, grate in the zest of the lime and squeeze in at least half the juice. Stir in salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar to taste. Stir in some fresh cilantro leaves at the last second.
Slice the pork against the grain, reheat the sauce in the microwave if necessary and spoon it generously over the meat (hot sauce will reheat the meat for you). Scatter sesame seeds over the sauce (optional) and serve with the lima beans.

Today I am making my Abuelo's molé poblano. This is a molé sauce with origins in the state of Puebla, Mexico. Like most cuisine, the recipe can vary from household to household. The ratios for my grandfather's molé sauce are to taste and can be adjusted. This recipe makes at least 2 to 2 1/2 quarts of molé sauce.

MOLÉ SAUCE FROM SCRATCH
Homemade Molé Sauce Recipe
Rick Bayless Oaxacan Black Mole
Making black mole is an undertaking, one that folks in Mexico often spread over three days. The first day is for collecting, measuring and doing the preliminary steps of preparation—the cleaning, toasting, roasting and such—or what in the professional kitchen is called mise en place, setting everything in its place so that the cooking will go smoothly. I’ve labeled those steps Basic Preparations below. The cooking often takes place on the second day, followed by serving on the third day. That’s the way we make this version in our restaurants. It’s a compilation of years of Oaxaca exploration and stove-side experience—classic, deeply satisfying and awesome, but not too baroque (some recipes have nearly 40 ingredients).

MOLE MADE EASY: Only 3 Ingredients & a jar of Doña Maria Sauce
When we don't have time to cook things from scratch, a good short-cut is much appreciated. That's what you get with this Mole Made Easy recipe. It starts with a jar of Doña Maria mole sauce, which you can find in the ethnic food aisle of your local grocery store, and you add only 3 ingredients to it. The result is a creamy, delicious mole sauce that you can mix with shredded chicken, pour over your favorite burrito, or make enchiladas with. The possibilities are endless. The hardest part of this recipe is opening the jar, and I'm not exaggerating! There's a trick to it, so be sure to check out the video. And read on for the easy recipe.
Mole Made Easy
1 jar Doña Maria mole sauce
4 cups chicken broth
1 round tablet of Mexican chocolate
2 Tbsp. peanut butter
Heat large skillet on stove with burner set to low. Empty jar of mole into skillet. (It's a thick paste, so it's helpful to use a butter knife to get it out.) Add 4 cups of chicken broth and raise heat to medium high. Stir and break up pieces of paste until it's dissolved into chicken broth. The sauce will begin to thicken as it cooks. Break Mexican chocolate into smaller pieces using a serrated knife, then add chocolate to pan and let it melt into the sauce. Add in peanut butter. Lower heat and stir continually until all the ingredients are melted in and you're left with a smooth sauce. Enjoy this delicious mole sauce while it's hot.
*Mole thickens as it cooks, so cook longer for a thicker sauce, or add more chicken broth or water if you like it more runny.
