My wife has this box of recipes, and one of the cards in this box is labeled "Sopa & Mole".
It is an old family recipe from a grandmother or great-grandmother or something. One of those that my wife had to write down by interrogating her mom, because it actually was never written down.
It's sort of been a tradition to have this on Christmas Eve when my in-laws are in town for the holidays.
I love it. One of my favorite meals. I usually refer to it as "Soapy Sheep" or "Soapy Mole". Weird, I know.
This year, for reasons I won't go into, I cooked for Christmas Eve and decided to try it out ... sort of.
You know me and the trouble I have following recipes ... luckily, it isn't a real precise recipe anyway, so I feel like it is sort of expected that you take liberties with it.
