Begin by placing 15 oz of dried hominy into a large bowl and cover it completely with water. Allow the hominy to soak for 6 to 12 hours.

Once soaked, drain the hominy thoroughly using a colander. Spread the drained hominy on a baking sheet lined with paper towels.

While the hominy dries, preheat your oven to 375°F for convection or 400°F for standard baking.

In a small mixing bowl, combine fine ground salt, garlic powder, paprika, and onion powder. Stir or shake until well combined.

Transfer your dried hominy to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle peanut oil and sprinkle in the seasoning mix. Toss until evenly coated.

Spread the seasoned hominy across a dry baking sheet and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, stirring every 20 minutes.

Once baked, remove from the oven and cool on the sheet for at least 15 minutes before serving.
