Then you slit them open and remove the seeds and veins. You must grind them until they are very fine and then you add them to the kettle. Continuing, you can add the cilantro and let it simmer for about two hours. At last, you can add the hominy and cook for another thirty minutes. Finally, it is a good idea to serve with lime wedges.
