\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This spicy vegetarian posole is super delicious. \u00a0I&#8217;ll definitely be bringing this recipe out again in the fall. \u00a0But even with the warm weather my husband and I still really enjoyed this soup and will be having leftovers tonight.<\/p>\n<p>I topped this subtly spicy soup with chunks of avocado, monterey jack cheese, cilantro, tortilla strips, sour cream and a spritz from a lime wedge. \u00a0My sister recommends radish slices and shredded green cabbage. \u00a0Having all of those things as options would be a great way to serve this soup to guests.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.hottie-biscotti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/greenposole5.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full

\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The recipe calls for a blender to puree some of the ingredients, but it just about filled my blender to the brim. \u00a0My sister used an immersion blender with great results, so use one of those if you have one. \u00a0A blender works fine if not.<\/p>\n<p>I forget how much I love posole. \u00a0There&#8217;s just something about the hominy that makes me happy. \u00a0It has such a great texture, especially in soup. \u00a0The chiles and poblano add a nice heat, but it&#8217;s not terribly spicy. \u00a0If you like it hot, then don&#8217;t be so careful when seeding the peppers. \u00a0Be sure to check the seasonings after the soup has simmered. \u00a0Mine needed a nice dose of salt along with the lime juice. \u00a0You could easily add some cooked shredded chicken for a heartier version.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.hottie-biscotti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/greenposole4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter

foil on the rack. \u00a0Broil the poblano until charred and skin is bubbling, 4-5 minutes per side. \u00a0 You can also do this over a gas burner using tongs. \u00a0Transfer to a paper sack or zip-top plastic bag, close it tightly, and let steam 20 minutes. \u00a0Rub the poblano with paper towels to remove skin. \u00a0Stem, seed, and place in a blender.<\/li>\n<li>In a large pot of boiling water, cook tomatillos until soft, about 5 minutes. \u00a0Drain and transfer to the blender.<\/li>\n<li>Add serranos, onion, garlic, cilantro, parsley, spinach, cumin, oregano, and 2 cups of broth. \u00a0Blend until smooth. \u00a0OR you can put everything from the poblano to the broth to a pot and blend with an immersion blender.<\/li>\n<li>Pour tomatillo mixture into a large pot and stir in 4 cups broth, the hominy, and the black beans.<\/li>\n<li>Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally, about 45 minutes.<\/li>\n<li>Add lime juice. \u00a0Taste, add salt and adjust seasonings.<\/li>\n<li>Garnish with avocado, cilantro, cheese, sour cream, chips and extra lime juice if desired.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div id=\"wp_fb_like_button\" style=\"margin:5px 0;float:none;height:70px;\"><script src=\"http:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/all.js#xfbml=1\"><\/script><fb:like
