Hominy Corn And Poblano Chiles Recipes

Steps:

• Remove the frozen corn from the freezer to begin defrosting.
• To prepare the Poblano chiles, place them directly over gas flame on your stove. Allow the skin to char and blister before turning using long tongs (or well padded fingers). Once all sides are charred, about five minutes, toss the peppers in a resealable bag and close. Set aside about ten minutes to allow the heat to steam the chiles. Once cooled, peel and seed the peppers, and give them rough chop.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook for two or three minutes until the onions are tender. Stir in the garlic, cumin and epazote/oregano and continue to cook another 30 seconds.
• Add in the corn and hominy, stirring occasionally, and cook for two minutes. Stir in the Poblanos and salt to taste. Cook an additional two or three minutes until the everything is heated through.
• Remove from heat and mix in the cilantro and lime juice.
• Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and bell pepper, season with salt and pepper, and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes, until the onion is translucent. Add a pinch of cayenne or a little minced jalapeño, if using.
• Add the corn kernels and poblano strips, season again and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the corn is cooked and tender, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the scallions, then the crème fraîche and allow it to heat through. Taste for seasoning, and give the corn a good squeeze of lime.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high.
• Place the peppers in the oven and char all over until the skins are blackened. Spray the corn with the cooking spray and broil until charred evenly.
• Place the peppers in a bowl and cover to cool. Peel and seed the poblanos and coarsely chop. Cut the kernels from the cob.
• Turn the oven temp to 450 degrees F.
• Dress the tomatillos with 1 tablespoon of the EVOO and arrange cut-side down on a baking sheet. Arrange the onions and garlic on a second baking sheet and toss with the remaining EVOO, the coriander and cumin. Roast the tomatillos until charred at the edges and lightly browned, 20 minutes, swapping the trays between the upper and lower racks once. Leave the onions and garlic in the oven and let them cook for an additional 10 minutes.
• Puree the tomatillos, onions, garlic and poblanos with 1 cup of the stock, the cilantro and lime juice. Transfer to a large pot along with the remaining stock and the hominy. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook to combine the flavors, 15 minutes. Serve the posole topped with the radishes, avocados, scallions and a little more lime juice.
