Cacao the food of the gods, rich red Chimayo chili's and toasted sesame seeds are the base for the complex flavor of this lovely dish. The culinary spice kits contain pre-measured, individual packages of pure and natural spices, a pantry list for easy shopping, and simple to follow directions to make these beautiful international recipes in your own kitchen. The basic cooking technique - the culinary spice kit comes with detailed cooking instructions on the back, but here are the basics. A few more steps to this dish, but the result is wonderful. Marinade the chicken or vegetables while you make an authentic chocolate chili paste and the roasted tomatillo salsa. Combine the paste and salsa then cook down to a luscious thick sauce while the chicken or vegetables roast. Mole sauce can be made the day before then warmed up when needed.
