Since I only had a small amount of green leaves this year, I decided to try my hand at making Chimo.
This product is nearly impossible to order anymore so it was high-time I got busy on a recipe.
The basics involve boiling your green leaves, straining them, adding a little sweetener and cocoa and cooking down to a paste.
Here's some photos along the way:

We have now more than 100 dozen in US available for the older orders and new orders but we cant sell in the web page, we are delegating the point of sales to a distribuitor with ATF and FDA, you can write to franciscosalvatore@hotmail.com to ask prices and shipping. The older orders will be shipped next week.

@volunge, thanks! I've actually made it twice now since my last post. The first was fairly sweet and soft but the second batch was much closer to El Toro Chimo. I'm off to go read that article now! :)
