- This is how you can take field corn, or any dry corn and make it into nixtamal, which can then be used to make Masa flour, hominy, grits, and it also frees up the niacin or B3 so the body can absorb it. It makes the corn soft and easy to use. It also removes mold toxins and makes it safer to eat improperly dried and stored corn.
You’re amazing!!!
Thank you! 😁
You always come through with the most interesting recipe ideas. Learned something new as usual, thanks for sharing.
Thank you! 😁
Great! I'm building up my food stash and want to add plain old corn because it's cheap. This helps.
I love having things like beans, rice, and dried corn on hand. It's a great addition to food storage
This is the first time I've successfully seen someone use washing soda to make hominy.
I loved making my own out of the corn I grew. If you haven't tried it before, you should give it a go. It's not hard, just a process that takes a bit of time.
Thank you for this! This is so interesting and awesome. My corn world has just expanded lol Looking forward to trying this. I'll be adding this video to one of my playlists.
I'm glad you liked it!! 😊
Absolutely amazing and wonderful.😮
Thank you!!! 😁
Thank you for this video!
You are very welcome!! I love being able to grow and use my own corn for different recipes. It's really fun. I hope that everyone that can grow some corn and try it, does. 😁
Very informative video. Have been developing a desire to shell/mill my own corn to flour like I am now doing for 100% whole wheat bread. However, after a couple of years reading about the loss of nutrients and fiber in AP flour vs Whole Wheat, can the same logic be applied to Hominy where the husk and germ are removed? At my advanced age, probably any nutritional loss is meaningless, however, for those who are younger is this an issue? Based upon your video, it would seem, that removing the husk improves the nutrient value. Are they any nutrients in the husk?
I don't know how well it is digested, but I am sure there's nutrients in them. I sometimes put the corn in my pressure cooker and cook it and use it like beans in soups. It's also really delicious. I use the brightly colored corn because there's supposed to be more nutrients in the things that makes it colored. It does get rid of the mycotoxin that could be present in the corn though, to remove the hull and germ. It is also the only way to get B3 from the corn. I think eating a mix of both is a good idea to get all the nutrients! I just moved to a new house; I'm hoping I can get some corn growing.
