Inca's Food, Mote Pelado, White Hominy, 15 Ounce

While pricey, these large hominy go a long way and are quite delicious. Each piece, when simmered in the cumin spiced chicken stock I use, tastes similar to tamale meal when served with chili or other sauce.

Growing up, all the grits we had were made from hominy. No more. I believe hominy grits are scarcer than hen's teeth. The only grits I've found, no matter what the source (even Amazon, who has EVERYTHING) are just plain, ground corn. So, I decided that there had to be a way to get hominy grits and ended up with a bag of this dried hominy. I have a little hand coffee grinder that I loaded with enough to make a serving and started cranking. When I was finished I prepared them as usual and just WOW! Taste and texture as I remember! Now I need more because I need to make a batch of shrimp and grits.

Good overall quality, but a little stale. Worked great for air fried corn nuts.

It’s easy to cook. It’s very firm and someone might confuse it with not being cooked but it is cooked. I make pozole soup (red or green) with this white hominy and my husband and family absolutely love it. Not going back to canned stuff if I can help it. It’s not at all like the canned hominy so be prepared.😋 It didn’t come with cooking instructions so I looked it up on the internet and used my best judgment. Instructions are just a guide any ways so no big deal.

The hominy was spoiled when I received it. It smelled off and tasted even worse.

Nothing the price was too much compare the product

It’s delicious and the perfect size for pozole. Every piece is beautiful, plump, and tasty. Well worth the price!

I used this hominy to make a pozole. They required a bit more cooking than the package said, but they turned out well. I pinched off the points, but they didn't flower out. Not sure what I did wrong, but it didn't matter. They were delicious!
