Pinol - what a food!

A few weeks ago, Jose, Factor, and Casi came over with a big bag of something that had just arrived from Guatemala. They were all excited to cook this special dish for me - something very Guatemalan. It's like a thick soup, with beef consume, tomatoes, cilantro, salt, pepper, onions, and chicken thighs. They called it "Pinol" - which is also the name of the main ingredient - kind of like a coarsely-ground corn meal. Throw everything together, with some water to make it soupy, and cook on the stovetop for about 20-30 mins. It turned out delicious! Here are two photos.
