Nutritional Benefits

White hominy (maíz pozolero blanco) is whole corn that has been nixtamalized, giving it its signature flavor and hearty, chewy texture. It is naturally gluten-free, plant-based, and a satisfying source of carbohydrates and fiber – the traditional heart of pozole and menudo. This extra grade features the largest, most uniform kernels for a beautiful bloom.

How to Cook

Rinse the hominy, then cover with plenty of water and simmer until the kernels swell and burst open into a flower shape, usually 2–3 hours. Add your seasonings, meat, and chile broth, and continue simmering until everything is tender. Skim as needed and keep the pot at a gentle boil so the kernels bloom fully.

Recipes
