Creme de Milho is a traditional Brazilian dish made primarily from corn, milk, sugar, and sometimes a touch of cinnamon or vanilla for added flavor. This creamy, sweet corn-based dessert celebrates the simplicity of Brazilian cuisine, highlighting corn as a staple ingredient. While variations exist, it often uses either fresh corn or cornmeal, combined with milk or condensed milk, creating a rich and silky texture. Nutritionally, corn is a good source of fiber, vitamins like B-complex, and antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, which support eye health. However, due to the addition of sugar and condensed milk in many versions, Creme de Milho can be high in refined sugars and calories, making it a dish best enjoyed in moderation. Its comforting, sweet flavor and wholesome ingredients make it a beloved treat for family gatherings, especially in traditional Brazilian celebrations like Festa Junina.
