January is National Menudo Month!

Menudo the breakfast of champions! This year I have found a market with menudo that I find okay. I still think it is best the next day and I buy it without posole so I can add my own.  This post has inspired me to talk about Menudo all month. Like other ethnic foods, you either love it or hate it. I am talking to those who eat it and will talk about variations, nutrition, and other trivia. Menudo, means little pieces and the menudo I am writing about is from Mexico. Menudo is eaten almost weekly, restauants, cafes, butchers and other outlets that serve it generally make it on Sat and Sunday. My grandfather Miquel, went to mass every morning at 5am and on Sundays it was not unusual for him to pop by our house with a pot of menudo, bolillos and sweet bread that he picked up from a bakery. What a treat that happened frequently including restraunts that have a pot going almost 24/7.  More to come with pictures. None today!
​Buen Provecho and Happy New Years Eve!
