What’s hominy?  Its corn that is soaked.  The soaking process loosens the hulls, softens the kernels and causes them to double in size.   Hominy can be purchased canned or dried.  If you buy it dried, you have to soak it, just like you would with dried beans.  Its also ground up and used for grits and various Mexican dishes.
