About Maize semolina
Maize semolina, also known as corn meal, is a versatile product derived from dried and ground maize kernels. With its roots in global cuisines, maize semolina holds a prominent place in dishes from Africa, Latin America, and Southern Europe, forming the base for staples like polenta, grits, and pap. It is naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. Rich in carbohydrates, maize semolina serves as a great source of quick energy. It contains small amounts of essential nutrients, such as magnesium, iron, and B vitamins, supporting overall health. However, it is relatively low in protein and fiber compared to other grain products and may have a high glycemic index, especially in refined forms. Pairing maize semolina with vegetables, lean protein, or healthy fats can create balanced meals that enhance its nutritional profile.
