Extra Sweet Corn is a deliciously sweet variety of corn praised for its vibrant yellow kernels and tender texture. Originating from selective cultivation processes to enhance natural sweetness, this type of corn is a staple in American cuisine and widely featured in dishes across Latin American, Asian, and Mediterranean cooking. Packed with nutrients, Extra Sweet Corn is a good source of dietary fiber, which supports digestion, and contains valuable vitamins such as vitamin C, folate, and several B vitamins. Additionally, it provides antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, supporting eye health. While naturally low in fat, it is relatively high in natural sugars, so moderation is recommended for those monitoring sugar intake. Versatile and satisfying, it can be enjoyed fresh, steamed, grilled, or incorporated into soups, salads, and salsas, making it a tasty, nutrient-rich addition to a balanced diet.
