Homana, homana, hominy

Okay, this stuff....

which when soaked, looks like this...


doesn't really float my boat. I'd never cooked it before, so I just followed the recipe on the back of the package to make Golden Corn Chowder. Sounded good. Bacon, onions, cream, yada, yada, yada. It became part of this lunch...

Significant Eater really liked the chowder, which I could barely finish. Tasted sort of like, I dunno, prison food...not that I've ever been in prison long enough to get a true feeling for the food. Anyway, try new foods, that's what they taught me in cooking school.

Just not hominy.

  1. For hominy you want to make something more brothy like posole.

  3. Interesting theories, all. I was just following directions.

    And who said I ever had a hangova?

    Stuff still sucks.

  4. Get the gigantic "dinosaur" hominy at Kalustyan's. Way better.
