Tips:

For a more authentic posole salad, use hominy that has been cooked in a traditional Mexican broth. You can find hominy in cans or dried in Latin American grocery stores.
If you don't have any fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro. However, fresh cilantro will give the salad a more vibrant flavor.
Feel free to adjust the amount of lime juice and honey in the dressing to suit your taste. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little spice.
This salad is best served fresh, but you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Just be sure to toss the salad again before serving, as the dressing may have separated.
