Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Hominy

    Drain and rinse the hominy corn thoroughly under cold water. Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a large, deep skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Fry the Hominy

    Carefully add the hominy corn to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

  4. 4

    Drain and Season

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried hominy corn and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. While still hot, sprinkle with house spice blend and salt to taste.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Drizzle with lime juice and serve immediately while hot and crispy.
