Mole Week
Olé Restaurant Group Dedicates Special Menu to Staple of Mexican Cuisine
WHAT: From Wednesday, October 31st, 2012 to Sunday, November 4th,
2012, the Olé Restaurant Group will celebrate all things mole with a
special “Mole Menu.” Mole is a sauce that is a staple of Mexican cuisine
and a culinary symbol of the country’s “mestizaje,” or mixed heritage,
due to the types of ingredients it contains and the legends surrounding
its origin. Moles come in various flavors and can contain up to 30
individual ingredients, with chile peppers as the most common component.
The
“Mole Menu,” available at Olé Mexican Grill in Cambridge, MA and Zόcalo
Back Bay, located in Boston, MA, will feature four distinct
incarnations of the sauce: mole negro, mole coloradito, mole mancha
manteles and mole verde oaxaqueño. Mole negro is called the “king of
mole” for its complexity. It is seasoned with indigenous Mexican
ingredients like guajillo chiles, Mexican oregano and marjoram, and will
be paired with turkey. Originally from Oaxaca, mole coloradito, made
with cloves, oregano, peppercorns, canela and an inconspicuous
combination of spices will be paired with beef. Mole mancha manteles,
literally named “tablecloth stainer” because of its deep red color, will
be served with lamb shank. Originally from Puebla, this fruity mole
combines sweet notes with spice for a captivating contrast. Or, for
those looking for a vegetarian option, mole verde oaxaqueño, made with
Mexican herbs like hoja santa and epazote and served with vegetables, is
one of the best known moles and a truly soulful food.
All entrees
will be served with a side of Mexican rice and black beans. The “Mole
Menu” will be served in conjunction with the regular menu. Reservations
are recommended. Please call Olé Mexican Grill at (617)-492-4495 or
Zócalo Back Bay at (617)-456-7849.
