So, what is yellow maize?

Yellow maize, also known as yellow corn, is a popular and versatile food ingredient that has been a staple in many cultures for centuries. This variety of maize is distinguished by its vibrant yellow color and slightly sweet flavor, which make it a great addition to many dishes. Yellow maize is a rich source of dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals, including thiamine, niacin, and phosphorus. It can be used in a variety of recipes, from savory dishes like cornbread and polenta, to sweet treats like corn pudding and corn cakes. Whether used in its whole kernel form, ground into flour, or processed into cornmeal, yellow maize is a nutritious and delicious ingredient that adds both flavor and texture to a wide range of dishes.
