Valle Del Sole White Hominy Broken Maize 900gr
Hominy corn is dried corn that has been treated with alkaline solution (lye) to remove the husk and chime. This is an ancient process called nixtamalization to make the corn easier to grind and cook. It also gives the corn a wonderful flavor (which you tastes in tamales and homemade tortillas) and makes it more digestible and nutritious. It can be boiled, or ground into cornmeal, or coarsely ground. You can cook porridge (with butter and syrup or as a savory side dish) for breakfast. Or the boiled corn can be ground in the food processor into homemade masa that you can use to make tamales, arepas, empanadas and pupusas.
