Corn: The Saturday Grain...
According to Omnivore Dilemma we are about 70% Corn, but not from the pure grain itself. The average American consumes corn in many processed forms such as dextrose, corn syrup, corn oil... and the list goes on. We have limited our consumption of processed food and corn, usually only eating the good stuff when we can find it organic.
Well we found some GOOD STUFF!!! And it is grown just a couple of miles up the road organically!!
This is from Breakneck Acres www.breakneckacres.com. And it is awesome!
The last organic corn meal I bought at Whole foods seemed to be perpetually underdone with big chunks in it. This stuff is beautiful! It has little specks of red. I think it is beautiful just sitting in the jar in the fridge.
So on with it and I will go and soak some for Saturday morning breakfast!
Here are some corn dishes I have made recently.
