About Galette mais

Galette Mais is a savory cornmeal pancake, rooted in Haitian cuisine, offering both versatility and hearty flavor. Traditionally made from fine-ground cornmeal, water, salt, and a hint of sugar, it’s cooked on a hot skillet until golden and crisp. Often enjoyed as a snack or side dish, its gluten-free nature makes it appealing to those with dietary restrictions while providing a good source of complex carbohydrates for sustained energy. Rich in fiber from the cornmeal, Galette Mais can support digestive health and offer essential nutrients like iron and magnesium. However, depending on preparation, it may be fried in oil, which could increase its calorie and fat content. Pairing it with fresh vegetables or lean proteins can balance its nutritional profile while showcasing the vibrant flavors of Haitian culinary tradition.
