Hominy Grits
Dear Aunt Daisy, Will you please tell me what "Hominy Grits" are? I read about them in an American magazine. Are they available in New Zealand? And how are they used? Thank you for your information. -Interested, Auckland. Hominy, which is prepared from corn, is obtainable in three forms. In whole kernels as SAMP, in f6granulated or ground form known as HOMINY GRITS, and a cooked product canned or in bulk known as HULLED CORN. I have no recipe for using Hominy Grits, but you probably have one yourself, which prompted you to write. Perhaps you would like to send it in to us. Here is one using whole hominy: One and a half cups coarse dried hominy, 4 tablespoons butter, 2 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon salt. Wash hominy, then soak in cold water to cover (2 cups) about 4 hours. Drain, then boil
in 6 cups boiling water for about 1 hour, renewing with boiling water if necessary. Do not let it get mushy. Drain, wash with boiling water, and put into a double boiler. Add butter, paptika, and salt; and let it stand over boiling water to mellow. A perfect dish to serve with ham. fowl, or game.
