Sopes with Bone Marrow

In recent years, bone marrow has become an important part of typical Mexican dishes; it is a key ingredient even in some Mexican snacks like esquites and the traditional sopes. Therefore, we prepared a recipe for Sopes with Bone Marrow ideal for snacking. One detail to consider in the preparation of the dough is to gradually add the guajillo puree to the dough and, if necessary, you can add a small portion of broth so it doesn’t feel dry. This easy recipe is special because the beans are cooked with chorizo and pasilla chili, sounds tempting, right?
