So, what is maize grits?
Maize grits, also known as corn grits, are a popular and versatile ingredient in many cuisines around the world. Made by grinding dried corn kernels into small, coarse particles, maize grits have a slightly sweet, nutty flavor and a distinctive texture that can range from creamy and smooth to slightly grainy and crunchy, depending on how they are prepared. They are a great source of fiber and protein, making them a healthy addition to any meal, and can be used in a variety of dishes, from savory porridges and polentas to sweet puddings and cakes. With their rich history and diverse applications, maize grits are a staple ingredient that no pantry should be without.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
