How is Hominy Prepared?

Hominy is made by soaking whole corn kernels in a lime solution, a traditional process called nixtamalization. This softens the kernels, removes the outer hull, and creates hominy's signature tender texture and mild, nutty flavor. After cooking, the hominy is rinsed and canned, making it ready to enjoy whenever you need it.
