    I'm Mexican and these practices are still a normalcy and very common.

      are tortillas and massa etc made from this kind of corn or do you also use regular yellow or white corn too?

    My momma use to make homemade hominy. Only she made a large quantity because she wanted to freeze some. She mixed corn with lime water in a no. 10 washtub, let it set for several days until all the shells easily came off the corn. Then she rinsed and rinsed and then rinsed it a third time. Then it was done. OMG !!! It was amazing !!!! I can't explain how good it is. The stuff you get in a can is a joke compared to homemade. If there were more people that could taste this, more people would like hominy and would make it. I cannot thank you enough for posting this !!!

    After seeing this video this spring I ordered a pound of the corn from her etsy store. It was 14 feet tall and I got 2 or 3 ears per stalk. I was amazed at how sweet it was for an old dent corn variety. Some ears I got were 24 inches long. She was a pleasure to deal with and this is truly a great variety of corn. I am currently drying it to try my hand at making homney this winter. Great video series.

    I dont know what led me here, we have also hominy in my country ,we eat it as a dessert with a fresh coconut grate( a source of coconut milk),brown sugar/condensed milk and a lil bit of salt.
    Gosh i missed eating it already.we call it “ Binatog” It smells and taste so good.perfect for my coffee.

    My family grew Hickory King corn growing up. Local farmers don't grow it because most people like the sweeter hybrids. We grew it for hominy and I think it makes the best pickled corn. After many failures I was finally able to make pickled corn. Those memories of my childhood came rushing back. My wife and I live in WV just past the KY state line. We are both retired so we just might make a trip to Mount Olivet.

    Iam Choctaw and we make a hominy dish called Tanchi Labona. Boil your hominy with chunks of your favorite meat, traditionally deer, elf or buffalo but later pork was used as were chicken gizzards or necks. Just water, hominy and your meat... maybe a little salt to taste

  • @janelightning73

    I recently rediscovered hominy!
    I get the giant cans from the Latino section in grocery store & divide into quart bags & freeze.
    Saute in a little bacon fat with salt & plenty fresh ground black pepper. Truly, amazingly delicious!
    Thanks for video.

    @tybrady1935 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Sounds a tiny bit different than the nixtamalization process for corn for tortillas. That process calls for one percent by weight for the calcium hydroxide and it’s not cooked as long. This recipe seemed to call for quite a bit more calcium hydroxide, but it is a different end product. Looks yummy, I’ll make some!

    LOVE me some Hominy. Especially the Yellow Hominy. I'll usually fry it up in the skillet with butter and sprinkle it down with Parsley and Garlic Powder. But also,I'll mix in it a Big batch of Tex-Mex for the Family and they absolutely LOVE it. I'll usually slice up some smoked sausage in a cast iron skillet,with butter and mix in some sweet kernel corn,Hominy,black beans,bell peppers,onions,diced tomatoes,and a can of sliced potatoes. Usually I'll make a large batch of Homemade Cornbread to go with it as well.

    SO FASCINATING!!! We've eaten hominy sparingly over the years as our go-to starch has been rice. I've recently been "enlightened" about this age-old staple and now we love it!!! I knew it was of the corn family but did not know all you've shared in this vid, so thanks!!!

  • @bodeine454
    @bodeine454 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The first time I ever tried or heard of hominy was around 1978 in Orgonia, Ohio at a place called Pioneer Village. It is a park that has many old log cabins and structures in it. They had a different log structure for different activities that were going on like weaving, blacksmithing, cutting sugar cane etc. They used to cook the old fashion way in big cast iron kettles over an open wood fire and you could smell the hominy from the other side of the park. The way that I had it was the way the gentleman cooking it told me to try it, with sorghum drizzled over it. I was hooked from then on. I've always associated hominy with some type of sweet syrup on it but I'd like to try it other ways also. This is the inspiration I need, thank you....

    Thanks Tim - When I was little we had hominy and I liked it. Then 45 years later I was given a can of it and I thought what am I going to do with that. I placed it in some homemade soup and it was wonderful. Now I have 2 more ideas on how to cook with it. Loved hearing about the history of King corn as well.

    I like how nice and clean your corn looked when you added it to the water. When I got to that step and statrted stirring it a bunch of debris and what appeared to be corn weevils floated to the surface. The more I stirred, the more weevils appeared. I removed them and continued with the nixtamalization process, but I hope that it's not a sign of poor quality or stale corn.

    This is interesting! Thank you so much! The base water getting the coating off reminds me of how my mother always made corn on the cob…she’d slice a knife down each “row” because she said if you didn’t, you couldn’t digest it. I never knew anyone else who did that…but maybe that makes sense (at least her idea..may not have saved the nutrients, I don’t know) considering what you talked about. (She also loved hominy but never made it. The corn “de-cobber” machine is really cool!

    Tim, I hope you received my email about "Sunflower Sundries" yesterday, but just in case...... I retired in August of this year and since then a few of my church friends and I have been searching interesting places in Kentucky to visit. After watching your show that you and Nikki host I saw this interesting lady, Jennifer, owner of Sunflower Sundries. One of us ladies lives in Casey County, the other in Boyle County and I live in Jessamine County. We " finally " got together and made a road trip up there yesterday. I must say that it was worth every minute! So nice, met Janet, spoke with Jennifer via cell phone. Such nice folks! We are returning !!!! Love your show Tim and Nikki !!! May God bless you all .PS, You called me a few years ago and left a message on my office phone. I had requested the recipe for Venison Stew. My Dad, Denver Townsend, was number one in Archery in KY in the 70's. I would love to see this on your show again.Warm regards,Debbie Gibson

    What is heirloom corn? This is what corn should look like; full and wholesome like we have in Africa.You need to take your research there and see corn as you've never seen before.
    I am very surprised that every mention of the dried corn in this video, was confined to the Americas, when Africans have as many a variation of corn preservation, as well as recipes very similar to those of the natives of the Americas.
    We never make hominy with chemicals in Africa.
    Our hominy has always been boiled whole with plain water, sea salt, with dried peanuts added halfway during cooking, and served as a snack.
    We also never fry our hominy. We eat it whole like popcorn, or steamed with peanuts in string tied, corn husks. Corn has been a staple of Africa for centuries and has always been processed with plain water to achieve excellent healthful results.
    The outer husk of the dried corn isn't indigestible just because it is old and dry; In fact, the B vitamins lie directly under it; that's why we soak it for three days and mill it into corn meal or mealy meal, for most of our staple corn recipes.
    We also pound the kernels in massive wooden mortars and transfer them onto wide flat woven sieves, to be tossed and crushed or left whole for grits or hominy porridge...
    The notion that the husks are indigestible is nutritionally unfounded. In Ghana, when dried corn kernels are boiled, they burst like popped corn with the husks clinging to the kernels and serving as the 'roughage', or fiber as it is called in America, for a balanced meal.
    The only time we husk our dried corn is when we use it for hominy/grits porridge, which comes out as a thick gruel, full of tender hominy goodness.
