Mexican Mole Sauce
If you’ve never experienced mole sauce you are in for a special treat. Not only is this delicious, but it can be used in many ways to enhance recipes.
I must admit, up until recently I never had eaten mole sauce. I live in California and Mexican food is abundant, but somehow it never crossed my path, until I was assigned to make it at the raw food culinary school I attended last year. I immediately fell for this recipe and I think you will enjoy it as well.
