(Many of the fairs, festivals, and other wonderful food events that usually fill my calendar each spring have been postponed or cancelled. This post is based on a one-time spin-off, several years ago, of a well-established Los Angeles event.)
What to do with so many moles? Add them to a chicken combo whose accompanying tamal de frijol (made with beans, that is) took on anise-like flavor from an avocado leaf; ladle them over absorbent, yielding tortas de camaron, or shrimp patties; spread them across a cracker-thin tlacoyo. Running dry? Have more mole on the side!
