**Baked Hominy with Cheese: A Flavorful and Versatile Dish**
Baked hominy with cheese is a delectable dish that combines the nutty flavor of hominy with the richness of melted cheese. Hominy, also known as posole, is a type of dried corn that has been treated with an alkaline solution to remove the hull and germ. This process gives hominy a unique texture and flavor that pairs well with various ingredients. In this article, we present two enticing recipes for baked hominy with cheese: a classic version and a Mexican-inspired variation. Both recipes are easy to follow and can be customized to suit your taste preferences. Discover the delightful combination of hominy and cheese in these delectable dishes.
BAKED HOMINY WITH CHEESE
The taste and texture of this dish is subtle and unusual but my BF and I think it's absolutely delicious. My apologies if you haven't found this as appealing as we do. The recipe comes from a fantastic cookbook of the midwestern region (of the U.S.) called "Hollyhocks and Radishes." The original ingredients call for 2 cups cream instead of milk and twice the butter, so if you don't mind the extra fat, go ahead. I also like to add more horseradish, at least 1 tablespoon. In my area hominy can be found in the mexican foods section of the supermarket.

Tips:
- Choose the right hominy: Use dried hominy if you have time, as it has a better flavor and texture. If you're short on time, canned hominy is a good substitute.
- Soak the hominy overnight: This will help to rehydrate the hominy and make it more tender. If you're using canned hominy, rinse it well before using.
- Use a variety of cheeses: A blend of sharp cheddar, mozzarella, and Monterey Jack cheeses is a classic choice, but you can also use other types of cheese that you enjoy. Pepper Jack cheese, feta, and Parmesan are all good options.
- Add some spice: A little bit of chili powder, cumin, or paprika can add a nice kick of flavor. You could even add chopped jalapeños if you like your food spicy.
- Don't overcook the hominy: Hominy should be tender but still have a slight bite to it. Overcooked hominy will be mushy.
Conclusion:
Baked hominy with cheese is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal or a potluck. The combination of hominy, cheese, and spices is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give baked hominy with cheese a try. You won't be disappointed!
