FRIED HOMINY

Steps:

• Drain hominy and combine in a stockpot with onion, garlic, carrot, bay leaves, thyme and water to cover. Cook 1 to 11/2 hours, until kernels are tender and just beginning to split. Season with salt to taste. Let sit for 1/2 hour, then strain and remove vegetables. Continue to strain as kernels cool; hominy can be refrigerated at this point for up to 2 days.
• Mix together remaining dry ingredients with about 1/2 tablespoon salt; taste and adjust seasoning.
• Make sure kernels are as dry as possible. Place oil in deep pot and heat to 375 degrees. Pour hominy into pot, in batches if necessary. If oil spatters, partially cover pot. Fry, stirring occasionally, until kernels begin to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels, then toss with salt and spice mix. Serve with lime wedges.

HOMINY (HOMEMADE)

Steps:

• Place corn in an enameled pan; add water and lye.
• Boil vigorously for 30 minutes.
• Let stand for 20 minutes.
• Rinse off lye with several hot water rinses.
• Follow with cold water rinses to cool for handling.
• Work hominy with hands until dark tips of kernels are removed.
• This may take awhile.
• Separate the tips from the corn by floating them off.
• Add water to cover hominy about 1 inch and boil 5 minutes; change water.
• Repeat this step 4 times.
• Add water and cook until kernels are soft (30 to 45 minutes) and drain; saving this hot water you drain off.
• Pack hominy into sterile jars about 1/2 full.
• Add 1 teaspoon salt to each quart jar.
• Fill to within 1/2 inch of top of jar with water in which the corn was last cooked in or boiling water.
• Put on cap, screw band firmly tight.
• Process: using 10 pounds of pressure.
• Pints for 60 minutes.
• Quarts for 70 minutes.
• I used quart jars and only filled them half full with the hominy.
• Because during the processing, the hominy will expand.
