Mole Porn

from Veganomicon

(Ok. Not really mole porn. But that should definitely yield for some interesting new google-searches.)

"Since when is eating moles vegan?" Buddddummmm chiiiii.

That, my friends, was my friend QBL's response when I began to go on and on about what a good recipe this is.



She is about as funny as a turnip. YOU HEARD ME, QBL!

Anyways: alas, no one has yet posted the Veganomicon mole recipe, so you won't find it reposted here today. But let me just tell you: it's totally worth tracking down the cookbook just for this recipe. Holy motha.

And I didn't even use the GOOD shit when it came to the a) chocolate and b) chili powder. I used Trader Joe's semi-sweet chocolate chips and shitty 99-cent chili powder. And yet, AND YET, I wanted to fill my bathtub up with this and roll around in it buck-nekkid except for maybe a small hat made out of tortillas. I can only imagine what would've happened if I had splurged and bought some fancy chocolate and some good chipotle chili powder. My nipples probably would've caught fire.

As you can see in the pic above, I served it over blobby, undiscernable items, namely seitan and zucchini, on a bed of quinoa. And man alive was it good.

It's nutty. It's rich. It's got kick. It's got weird texture but in a good way. It's chocolatey. And it's just sexy as fuck. Truly.

Make it. Douse your tacos with it. Douse your stirfried veggies with it. Douse your nekkid significant other with it. It's all good. Trust me.

UPDATE!!! Mole recipe now posted **HERE**!!!
