CHICHARRON EN SALSA VERDE
You will want cracklins from pork, duck or goose to make this recipe. You can buy them in Latin markets, in Cajun markets and in some specialty markets, but mostly you will make this recipe after rendering some lard or duck fat yourself.

Steps:
- Pour your salsa over the cracklins in a pot, cover the pot and bring to a simmer for 20 minutes. You might need to add a little water or stock to keep it from sticking. You want the mixture to be stiff enough to not splooge out of a taco, though. You can cook your cracklins for more than 20 minutes if you want a softer texture.
- Heat up your tortillas and make your tacos! Top with cilantro, the onions soaked in the lime juice and cotija cheese.

CHICHARRON EN SALSA (CHICHARRON IN SAUCE)
Steps:
- For the chicharron: Preheat a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat and add the oil or lard. Cut the pork into even 2 1/2-inch squares to ensure even cooking. Once the oil is hot, slowly add the pork. (You can tell that the oil or lard is ready by adding a small slice of onion. If you see the onion sizzling, then the pot is ready for the meat.) Avoid dropping the meat in; you do not want the oil or lard to splash. If you see it boiling, just slowly stir; you do not want the meat to stick to the pot. Continue to cook until the meat turns a brown caramel color, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Once the fat is gone, add the salt to the pot. Let cook for about 5 minutes more, then take the pork out to a colander to release any extra oils.
- For the salsa verde: In a small pot, add the tomatillos in 1 cup water. Cook over medium-high heat until they go from a bright green color to a light brownish green color, about 8 minutes. Transfer the tomatillos to a blender and add the cilantro, Mexican oregano, salt, cumin, garlic and pickled jalapeño. Blend together, adding a bit of the water the tomatillos were cooked in. (The sauce should be on the thinner side.) Set aside.
- For the salsa roja de tomate: In a medium pot, bring to a boil the tomatoes with 2 cups water on medium-high heat. Cook until the tomatoes begin to slightly peel, then take them out and add to a blender with the oregano, salt, garlic and pickled jalapeño. (The sauce should the same consistency as the salsa verde.) Set aside.
- To assemble the chicharron en salsa: In a large saute pan, add some oil and heat on medium-high heat. Saute the onions, green onions and garlic. Add the chicharrones and mix together. Add equal parts salsa verde and salsa roja de tomate. Reduce the heat and have it simmer for about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, plate and enjoy.

Steps:
- Remove the husks from tomatillos, wash them and place them into a pot with enough water to cover them.
- Once the water starts to boil, set heat to medium and let them simmer for about 6 minutes, not more or tomatillos will become bitter.
- Remove tomatillos and chili peppers and place them into a blender with onion, cumin seeds, cilantro, and garlic.
- Add 1 cup of water and blend everything until combined (about 2 minutes). Set aside.
- Place salsa verde on a deep pan. Season with salt and pepper then bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Add chicharrones to the salsa and pour in the chicken stock. Use a spoon to push them down so they can soak well. Bring to a simmer.
- From here it depends in the quality and type of chicharron you're using the time it will take to cook. It can take from 10 up to 30 minutes, so you might adjust the liquids accordingly. If you see the chicharrones are still hard, add more chicken stock and keep simmering, covered, until they will become soft.
- Once chicharrones are softened, adjust seasonings, turn off the heat and serve.

CHICHARRONES EN SALSA VERDE
This is a typical plate at my house, my DH loves it. It is basically pork rinds, in a tomatillo sauce. Started making my own salsa, since the canned ones that I bought, weren't that good. This is how my Mom would make it, back home. If you don't have a "Carniceria" (store, specialized in meat cuts), buy the kind of pork rinds in a packet/bag.

Steps:
- To make the salsa, boil the tomatillos (without the papery husk), and jalapenos, until the jalapenos change color. Put all the tomatillos, and jalapenos in a blender, add some of the water that was used to boil them. Add the onion coarsely chopped, along with the cilantro, garlic salt and bouillon.
- To prevent minor burns, either use a clean washcloth instead of the top of the blender to cover, or if your blender top has the little attachment you can remove, remove it before you blend the hot ingredients. Blend everything.
- Chop the chicharrones to bite size, and reserve.
- Heat up some oil in a large skillet, add the salsa, and bring it to a boil, before adding the chicharrones.
- Let everything simmer for some 15 minutes before serving.
- Serve hot, with refried beans and flour tortillas.

Steps:
- Grill tomatillos and serrano chiles.
- In a food processor, blend tomatillos, chicken broth, garlic, peppers, salt, onions and half of the cilantro.
- In a deep sauce pan, heat the oil and cook the sauce for 15 - 20 minutes.
- In the meantime break the pork chicharron (crispy fried pork skin) down to medium sized pieces (1 - 2 inches) and add to the sauce when cooked.
- Cook for an additional 5 - 10 minutes. The sauce should be thick but also still runny, so you may need to add some water or chicken stock.
- Before serving sprinkle remaining chopped cilantro.
- Enjoy your tacos!

- Place the tomatillos, jalapenos, and water in a blender or a food processor. Puree just until chunky, then add the onion, garlic, cilantro, and salt and puree for about 2 minutes more, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary, until no large chunks remain.
- In a large cast iron skillet, heat the lard over medium high heat. Add the blended salsa and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 7 minutes, or until reduced and thickened. Reduce the heat a little and add the Chicharron. Cover, and continue cooking for about 5 minutes more, or until the Chicharron is soft but not mushy (this may take more or less time, depending on the thickness and freshness of the Chicharron). Serve the Chicharron with warm tortillas, refried pinto beans, and rice. Serve the garnishes in small bowls, for sprinkling at the table.
