About Mamaliga
Mamaliga is a traditional dish from Romanian and Moldovan cuisine, made primarily from yellow cornmeal, water, and salt. Similar to Italian polenta, it is cooked into a thick porridge-like consistency and often served as a base for hearty meals or as a side dish. Mamaliga is naturally gluten-free, low in fat, and a source of complex carbohydrates, providing steady energy. Cornmeal is rich in fiber, which supports digestive health, and contains small amounts of essential nutrients like iron, magnesium, and B vitamins. While mamaliga itself is nutritious, its health aspects can vary depending on preparation. Common pairings, such as sour cream, cheese, or fried meats, may increase calorie and fat content. Overall, mamaliga is a versatile, wholesome choice when enjoyed in moderation and complemented by nutritious sides or toppings.
