        <content>Anyone find mote/pozole/hominy (dried) in the area? I've gotten it at Hi Lo in JP (La Fe brand is what they've had in the past), but they don't seem to have it at the moment--a friend looked for me and could only find whole dried corn (which he got). Therefore, alternately, anyone know where I can get pickling lime ("cal" in Mexico) to turn my dried corn into hominy?</content>

      <content>There definitely aren't MANY more suggestions, though I did find a few just now--which didn't show up when I was looking last night. The board was also painfully slow last night, I suspect it was having problems. (And I should have specified T-accessible.) I need to keep East Boston in mind, it's an area I don't know well enough.

But, it turns out the corn my friend got was the right kind--sorry, Hi Lo, for doubting you.

(I've run in to confusion with things labeled "mote" that are just dried corn--my culinary Spanish isn't really up to snuff, but I'm concluding that "mote pelado" is what I'm looking for. But I've also seen things labeled "hominy" that are just dried corn, which is definitely an out and out mistake.)</content>
