RECIPES
Espagueti Verde
Ingredients
3 medium-large poblano peppers
1 chicken bullion cube or powder
1 small can or carton of Mexican media crema
200-250 gr pasta of your choice
Salt for taste
Directions
Roast the peppers either directly on the flame of your burner or in the oven until this skin turns black. Put them in a plastic bag and let them sweat for 10 min for easy removal of the skin. Remove the skin from the peppers (do not rinse them!), devein and remove all the seeds. In a blender put in your peppers, media crema and half of the chicken bullion cube or 1 tsp of bouillon powder and blend until smooth. Taste test and add more bullion or salt if needed. You can pour it directly onto your pasta or heat it up a little first and then mix in the pasta. Serve as is or you can also add in some canned yellow corn for a little more bite and pop of color, or queso fresco.
