Recipe and source notes

Samp I

6–8 servings Source yield

Ingredients

  • 1 cup canned hominy
  • 1 cup dried beans

Make it step by step

  1. Cook the beans, heat the hominy, and serve together. A cup of each will do for 6 – 8 people.
  2. If you’re determined to have the real thing, find field corn that has been dried on the stalk.
  3. Pop the brittle kernels off the cobs with your fingers and pound or grind them to loosen the tough husks.
  4. Put in a pot of cold water and skim off the husks that rise to the top.
  5. Soak for 2 days, drain, then spread one layer deep on a clean surface to dry in the sun.
  6. Store in a cool, dry place.
  7. To cook, put the kernels in enough water to cover and simmer for 2 – 3 hours, until tender.
