mole paste you buy in Mexico supermarkets

[abacal]

In TJ supermarkets (and hispanic markets in San Diego) you can buy mole paste by the kilo. It is presented in larges pans, and maybe 3-4 different varieties. Does anyone know how to convert that into mole sauce? I think I remember being told to mix it with a little chcicken stock - and maybe the Mexican chocolate (I'm not sure it that's already in it). I'd appreciate someone's experience with it.

I will try it. It does seem very much like what I remember being told. I also like the idea of roasting the tomatoes for extra richness!
Thanks!

fry onions and garlic, add the paste and loosen it with chicken broth
adjust (chiles, chocolate, more chiles)
