Los Chileros Organic Blue Corn Posole 4lb bulk bag

Q: Is the corn nixtamiled? And is it prepared, not necessarily cooked, but with the tip taken out?

The tips are still on the corn. I soaked overnight, boiled for about 5 minutes, then simmered for about two hours until it bloomed. I'm not sure if it is "Nixtamiled" as you asked? Here's what Los Chileros sez on their website. Our posole, or pozole, is prepared by cooking the corn with lime to remove the outer ‘shell’ of the kernel so that it will “bloom” when it is cooked. The lime is rinsed off after cooking and the posole is air-dried in the traditional manner.

Q: Has this been nixtamalized already?

baSED ON THIS DEFFINITION i WOULD SAY yES"Nixtamalization is a process for the preparation of corn, or other grain, in which the grain is soaked and cooked in an alkaline solution, usually limewater (but sometimes aqueous alkali metal carbonates), washed, and then hulled. The term can also refer to the removal via an alkali process of the pericarp from other grains such as sorghum. Wikipedia"

Q: Can these be sprouted?

No, because it comes ready for pozole. Meaning it has already been treated with lime. Look for regular( natural) maize.
