These hominy cakes were a delicious and easy side dish. I served them with grilled chicken and they were a perfect complement.

I'm not a huge fan of cornbread, but I really enjoyed these hominy cakes. They had a great texture and flavor.

These hominy cakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add some more milk or water next time.

These hominy cakes were a great way to use up some leftover hominy. They were easy to make and turned out really well. I would definitely make them again.

I've always loved hominy cakes, but I'd never tried making them myself before. This recipe was easy to follow and the results were delicious! The cakes were perfectly cooked and had a great flavor.

These hominy cakes were a hit at my last potluck! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, with a delicious cornmeal flavor. I'll definitely be making them again.
