Miso Mushroom Mole

This recipe is derived from one developed by Chef Valerie Frei, who was at El Destilado in Oaxaca. Frei’s original recipe for this smooth and umami-rich vegan mole uses chilhuacle negro, but this recipe substitutes New Mexico chile nativo, along with pine nuts, to create a sauce with a uniquely New Mexican character.
