For reference, this is beef shank pozole and it’s after I mixed in Hominy from the can. Yes I did drain and rinse

So I’ve made pozole a grand total of one time, but that’s a pretty common feature of stewing any meat. Skim it off (or don’t, it doesn’t really change the flavor much, but does look kind of gross). If you soak the meat in cold water for a few hours and then drain the bloody water off before cooking, it will cut down on it dramatically.

Looks delicious!

It’s totally normal. It happens with just about every soup you’ll make.
Skim off the bubbles, it makes for a cleaner tasting, smoother finishing, and more aesthetically pleasing dish.

normal while you’re making it, but not normal if your´re re heating it. that’s a sign of bacterial activity

When soup boils it creates bubbles. Do skim the top though

No it’s not normal at all. Tell you what, jus to help out, I’ll go ahead and get rid of it all for you. Just make sure you have cebolla and cilantro chopped up too

Yesss you can skim it off if you want but Pozole actually means Foam in nahuatl, The word in nahuatl is Pozolli, which is where the dish gets it’s name

It’s completely normal but If the chicken isn’t fully cooked before adding the sauce either way before or after adding the Chile sauce into broth this will happen as well. As I said if chicken was fully cooked before adding the Chile sauce then you add it let the sauce simmer / boil with the broth and this happens this indication that it’s ready and tasty. People saying it’s not normal doesn’t cook much
