BAKED HOMINY WITH CHEESE



Baked Hominy With Cheese image

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.
