A vegan posole recipe by Deborah Madison, from her book, Local Flavors--one amongst her many.

• 1 pound dried Rancho Gordo prepared hominy, soaked overnight
• 1 large white onion, finely diced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 1/2 teaspoons Mexican Oregano
• 6 large New Mexico green chiles (or poblanos)
• 1 bunch scallion, finely chopped
• 1 cup cilantro, finely chopped
• 1 jalapeño chile, seeded and minced
• 1 teaspoon cumin seed, toasted and ground
• 1 pinch sea salt
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1 whole avocado, diced into chunks
• 4 whole corn tortillas, slivered
• 1 cup cabbage, thinly sliced
• 1 lime, quartered

1. Put the hominy in a large soup pot with onion, garlic, oregano and a gallon of water. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer until tender. This can take as long as 3 hours, so check pot occasionally and add water as it boils away. The hominy will swell considerably, and the kernels will split open.
2. While the hominy is cooking, roast the chiles, then place them in a bowl and cover with a plate to steam for 15 minutes. Slip off the skins, pull out the seeds and chop. Add the chopped chiles to the simmering hominy along with 4 teaspoons salt. Continue cooking until the hominy is completely tender. Taste for salt.
3. Preheat the oven to 350F. To make the salsa, combine the scallions, cilantro, jalapeño chile, cumin, and salt in a bowl. Stir in the oil, add water as needed to thin, and add avocado. Toast the tortilla strips in the oven until crisp, or fry them in vegetable oil.
4. To serve, stir the salsa into the hominy and garnish with a nest of cabbage and tortilla strips and a wedge of lime. Accompany with warm tortillas.
