History & Origin
Mole is a broad Mexican category of complex sauces rather than one single recipe. Puebla and Oaxaca are famous for layered moles that combine dried chillies, spices, seeds, nuts, fruit and sometimes chocolate; this home mole poblano-style sauce is streamlined but still built in stages.
