Hominy HOMINY, Explanatory : We have two sorts of Hominy, one almost the entire grain with the hull taken off, the other the grain ground after the hull has been removed. The latter is known as hominy grits. Both kinds should be soaked in cold water over night, then cooked slowly. The markets supply the soaked hominy.
