WHAT IS HOMINY?
This Mexican cooking staple is derived from corn and commonly used to plump soups and stews. It can also be ground up to create masa or grits.

HOW IS HOMINY PREPARED
Hominy is made by soaking corn kernels in a lime water solution, which causes them to plump and loosen the hull (outer shell.) When the shell is removed, hominy can be ground into a paste or flour. The flour is commonly used to make the masa for tamales.
