Description
Atole — the ancient Mesoamerican drink of ground corn cooked in water or milk until thickened — is among the oldest continuously consumed preparations in the Americas. Pueblo people of the Rio Grande valley have made atole since long before Spanish contact. The corn's starch gelatinises during cooking, producing a thick, warming, slightly sweet drink that sustains through cold New Mexican winters.
