Hominy and Cream
Ingredients
Directions
The book gives no cooking times; the times in the steps were added in transcription, so check for doneness rather than trusting the clock.
Cook the hominy
Cook the hominy in boiling water until tender, about 30 minutes.
Drain and rinse the hominy.
Make the creamed hominy
In a saucepan, heat the cream and add the hominy.
Stir gently and season with salt.
Serve hot.
