Nutritional Benefits
White hominy (maíz pozolero blanco) is corn that has been nixtamalized, a traditional process that softens the kernels and enhances their flavor and texture. It is naturally gluten-free, low in fat, and a source of dietary fiber and carbohydrates for hearty, satisfying meals.
The big, tender kernels bloom as they simmer, giving pozole and menudo their signature body and bite.
How to Cook
Rinse the hominy and, if starting from fully dried kernels, soak overnight before cooking. Simmer in plenty of water or broth for 2 to 3 hours until the kernels swell and become tender, adding more liquid as needed.
Once tender, the hominy is ready to be built into pozole, menudo, or your favorite soup.
Recipes

Pozole Verde – Combine with a tomatillo and green chile broth for a bright, tangy bowl.
Menudo – Add tender hominy to a classic tripe and chile soup for a traditional favorite.
