Brown Mole Sauce History
Brown Mole Recipe is from the town of PUEBLA two-hour drive
southeast of Mexico City,
farms and cactus rows, and out onto a long stretch of highway.

Puebla is considered by many to be the gastronomic capital of Mexico.
And its most famous culinary creation is mole poblano
brown chili sauce, traditionally served over poultry,
that involves dozens of ingredients and carries hints of its unsweetened chocolate.
The word mole (pronounced MOH-lay), are several types of moles, in a variety of
colors and flavors — and not all of them include chocolate.
Bright green cilantro-infused mole verdes; green pipián moles
made with pumpkin seeds; peanut-butterlike cacahuate moles;
and mole almendrado, a dark almond mole.
For years, mole was a special-occasion dish only, the preparation notoriously
time-consuming.
But all of these powders and pastes were ready to
roll — add a dash of oil and chicken broth, and you’ve got a delicious
mole in minutes.
In Puebla allmost every restaurant in town promotes the dish.
Behind each specialty is a nugget of history: the greasy,
Mole itself is evidence that the Indian culture was never defeated.
Though the invention of mole poblano is usually attributed to a Spanish nun,
the word itself comes from the Náhuatl Indian word molli,
meaning “concoction” or “sauce.” And most food scholars agree that some
form of the sauce dates back to pre-Columbian times.
17th-century nun, Sor Andrea de la Asunción of the Santa Rosa Convent,
was asked to create a special dish for a visiting archbishop.
