Canned hominy is already cooked; it can be eaten as is like you would corn (try it with a little butter and salt and pepper), quickly sautéed with vegetables for an easy side or mixed into soups and stews.

Hominy is generally quite good for you. It contains roughly just 119 calories and 1.5 grams of fat per cup, but also about 24 grams of carbohydrate, which is fairly high. It’s also a good source of fibre and iron.

Should you rinse canned hominy?

It is very important to rinse the corn thoroughly. Work hominy with hands until the dark tips of kernels are loosened from the rest of the kernel (about 5 minutes). Separate the tips from the corn by floating them off in water or by placing the corn in a coarse sieve and washing thoroughly.
