Description
Dried whole kernels of maize with a distinctive chewy texture.
In Mexico, maize – also known as hominy in the US – is often used to make pozole, a savoury, brothy stew with pork, chicken or beans. Pozole is traditionally served for celebratory meals with colourful garnishes like shredded cabbage, sliced radishes, diced onion, Mexican oregano, árbol chilli flakes, lime wedges and tostadas.
These are large kernels from Peru.
