I have a classic olla that I use for cooking my beans. My
mother-in-law told me to boil water with salt in it until almost gone for
several times before using. I don't know if my pot has lead in it or not,
but I purchased it in Michoacan, in a village where they are famous for
them. My mother-in-law and her relatives use these pots all the time to
cook and serve...and they are still living.......
But just in case, I found this site you might be interested in:

I just went to the "Rancho Gordo" website and my mouth is
watering!!! :-) All the recipes sound delicious! I have
nopales de castilla growing by the side of my house and tomorrow I plan to go
pick a few, clean them up and make a nopalito salad. Yum-Yum! Thanks
again for sharing this website!
