California Farm Cast Iron Chocolate Stewed Turkey

Our Mexican neighbors make the best chocolate sauces for meat and other dinner dishes in the world, called mole sauces, and our supermarkets carry inexpensive but bland frozen turkeys, an opportunity to combine the two and spice up a turkey.

If you stew turkey in tangy chocolate sauce in a traditional cast iron pot, the frozen ones will become just as juicy and delicious as if you went out in the spring hunting season for wild turkeys and brought one home. Sweet and spicy, gamey and juicy, not dry at all.

This mole sauce is my copy of the Pelayo family “ pollo en mole” sauce from Fruitvale Avenue, Oakland.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
