Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash the peppers and roast them directly over the flame or on a griddle. Once well roasted, place them in a bag to sweat for about 5 minutes. After this, remove the skin and make an incision to remove the seeds. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Make a cross cut on the tomatoes and place them in a pot with hot water to remove the skin. Add 1/4 of the onion as well. Once the tomato skins are removed, blend them thoroughly with the onion and garlic. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Separately, slice the rest of the onion. Remove the stems and leaves from the squash blossoms. (You can do this by hand; it's simple and easy to do.)

  4. 4

    Once prepared, wash thoroughly and drain. In a pan, sauté the sliced onion and after 1 minute, add the blossoms, season, mix for 4 minutes, and turn off the heat.

  5. 5

    Stuff the peppers with cheese, blossoms, and more cheese, to taste...

  6. 6

    In a saucepan, add the blended mixture or tomato puree (if not using fresh tomatoes) and season with salt or chicken bouillon powder and epazote. When it comes to a boil, add the peppers, lower the heat, cover, and let cook for 10 to 15 minutes.

  7. 7

    Serve and enjoy!
