What Is The Difference Between Corn And Hominy?
Corn is the whole dried kernel of corn, while hominy is made from corn kernels that have been soaked in a solution of water and lye or ash, which removes the hull and germ and causes the kernel to puff up. This puffing of the corn kernel changes the texture, flavor, and nutritional content of the corn, making it a staple in many traditional dishes across the Americas.
