Steps:

Place corn in an enameled pan; add water and lye.
Boil vigorously for 30 minutes.
Let stand for 20 minutes.
Rinse off lye with several hot water rinses.
Follow with cold water rinses to cool for handling.
Work hominy with hands until dark tips of kernels are removed.
This may take awhile.
Separate the tips from the corn by floating them off.
Add water to cover hominy about 1 inch and boil 5 minutes; change water.
Repeat this step 4 times.
Add water and cook until kernels are soft (30 to 45 minutes) and drain; saving this hot water you drain off.
Pack hominy into sterile jars about 1/2 full.
Add 1 teaspoon salt to each quart jar.
Fill to within 1/2 inch of top of jar with water in which the corn was last cooked in or boiling water.
Put on cap, screw band firmly tight.
Process: using 10 pounds of pressure.
Pints for 60 minutes.
Quarts for 70 minutes.
I used quart jars and only filled them half full with the hominy.
Because during the processing, the hominy will expand.

Categories side-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Butter, for greasing the pan
8 slices bacon, chopped
1 onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
One 30-ounce can hominy, drained and rinsed
3/4 cup half-and-half
Hot sauce, to taste
1/2 cup grated Cheddar
1/2 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup breadcrumbs

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter an 8- or 9-inch square baking pan.
In a large skillet, fry the bacon over medium-high heat until crispy, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. In the bacon fat, cook the onion and pepper until just starting to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the hominy, half-and-half and hot sauce. When the mixture is bubbling, turn off the heat and stir in the bacon and some of the Cheddar and Monterey Jack, reserving some of the cheese for later. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and more hot sauce if needed.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and top with the remaining cheese and the breadcrumbs. Bake until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Let rest for 15 minutes before serving.
