How is it different from rye flour?

Dishes made from cornmeal are softer than those made from rye flour. In the second case, the baking comes out very dense.

The corn composition is distinguished by a beautiful yellow color. Rye flour has a grayish tint and inclusions are present - small particles of grain shells.

Corn is a traditional agricultural crop known since the days of the Mayan Indians. In Mexico and Brazil, some states of the USA and in South America, Romania, Moldova, in the south of Ukraine, corn fields are the same integral part of the rural landscape as oat or rye crops in central Russia. Naturally, this culture is used not only as pet food, but also has found the widest application in national cuisines.

What is corn flour

Few people have not tried boiled or baked baby corn on the cob. Soft, sweet, seasoned with salt and garlic, fragrant, it just melts in your mouth, awakening a truly gigantic appetite and making you reach for the next portion. And we are happy to put canned in grains in soups and borscht, add to salads. And then we just enjoy it. However, in cooking, cornmeal is often used to prepare various dishes. "What is this product?" - you ask. We answer: these are peeled and crushed grains of yellow corn - just like wheat is ground into flour. The product can be finely ground (high grade, extra, first grade) and coarse. Both species are indispensable in many national dishes.

What do we cook with flour?

Corn flour of the highest grade is used for home baking, cooking hominy, banush, porridge. Coarse varieties - groats - are used for seasoning soups, minced meat for cabbage rolls, for breading meat, fish, dough products. Cornmeal is a dietary product, because it is extremely rich in useful trace elements. It is very easily absorbed by the body, improves digestive processes, is a high energy product, actively restores strength and calories. Therefore, food, which includes cornmeal, is recommended by nutritionists when compiling a menu for debilitated patients. But even as everyday dishes, corn dishes will perfectly diversify your table!

Her Majesty Malyga!

Hominy has been one of the most popular dishes in Moldova, Romania and the border regions of Ukraine for about 5 centuries. This is a thick, even steep porridge, yellow as the summer sun, with a slight sweetish aftertaste. They eat it with milk and sugar, with salted cheese and cracklings, fried meat and sauces. Previously, not a single solemn feast was complete without this dish. Now, of course, in cities it has become less common in home culinary delights. But in rural areas it still does not lose ground. The main ingredient of the delicacy is the same cornmeal. Hominy recipes may differ slightly in the composition of the components, but the cooking technology is always the same. Which one - you will now find out.

Ingredients and Proportions

As they say about pancakes, that the first of them is lumpy, so hominy for the first or second time is rarely successful. Considerable skills and dexterity are needed to prepare it. Special requirements are imposed on flour - it should only be of the highest grade, carefully sifted and well dried in the oven. The dish is cooked in a cast-iron pot: no enameled or thin-walled pans are suitable. And it interferes with a long wooden spoon or spatula, rolling pin. The ratio of ingredients is about 1 to 3. So, let's start cooking this dish from cornmeal. Pour one and a half liters of water into the pot, add an incomplete tablespoon of salt. When it boils, in a thin stream, stirring all the time, pour in the grits. Or add directly from the sieve. Another way - first throw a handful, and as soon as the water boils again - after a minute - pour the rest of the portion at once. Turn the fire down to low and cook the dish, stirring it clockwise all the time, along the walls of the cast iron. Cooking time - about 30 minutes. Then reduce the heat to a minimum and simmer the porridge for another 15 minutes. It should be very thick, so that it does not stick to the mixer.

Mamaliga: the end of cooking

Now the crucial moment: moisten an aluminum spoon in water and separate the hominy from the walls of the dish with it. Let it bake for another 5 minutes on the stove to better lag behind. And then it’s simple: shake the cast iron a couple of times and turn the contents onto a cutting board. If the hominy is successful, it will retain its shape and not fall apart. With a thin, harsh thread or fishing line, cut the food into slices, like a cake. And bring it to the table - surprise your loved ones and friends! Just do not forget to serve it with fresh cucumbers and tomatoes, green onions and garlic, dill and parsley. And be sure to brynz! Believe me, you will get a real feast of the gods.

Cakes, cakes, cakes!

But from this paragraph you will learn how to make cakes from cornmeal. In the Caucasus, in Mexico, they often replace bread and are a full-fledged dish or an important additional component for some kind of meal. Such cakes can be baked in the oven, fried in a pan with or without oil. The simplest recipe is: 2 cups of sifted flour, hot water or milk, salt to taste. Knead the ingredients into an elastic dough. It should not be brittle or runny. Next, divide the dough into equal parts, roll out round cakes (about a centimeter thick) and bake in a pan in vegetable oil. If you wish, you can add cheese or grated cheese to the dough when kneading (then do not add salt!) Put the finished cakes on napkins so that they are not too greasy. You can eat it just like that, hot, or you can wrap pieces of meat in them, grease with jam, etc. The main thing is that it will be very, very tasty!

Sweet pastries

If you didn’t know, then let’s clarify: corn flour is the same complete product as wheat flour. It does not make excellent muffins and desserts. In addition, baking from cornmeal does not get stale for a long time, it has a high-quality presentation. For example, here is a delicious cookie. You will need a glass of flour, 100 g of butter or baker's margarine, 150-200 g of sugar or powder, a dozen eggs, a little vanilla and a couple of teaspoons of cinnamon. Separate the yolks from the whites, rub the first well with sugar and butter until white. And from the proteins, beat a strong foam. Then connect the components. Mix cinnamon, vanilla and flour and gradually pour into the already prepared ingredients. Knead the mass well, spread in a layer on a greased baking sheet. Place in a preheated oven and bake cornmeal cookies over low heat for about 10 minutes. Then cut the still warm dough into squares and pour warm honey over it, pricking the surface with a fork. Let the dessert cool and serve with tea! Everything will be eaten very quickly!

corn pie

And here is another very nice recipe for a real cornmeal pie. More precisely, from cakes prepared on its basis. Take 200 g of kefir or sour milk; fresh whey is also suitable. And also 250 grams of flour of two varieties - wheat and corn. Grams 100 semolina - for the airiness of the dough. Salt and sugar - to taste. Knead the dough, roll into a ball, let stand so that the semolina swells. Then roll it into cakes of the same size, an even number. Put any filling you want on one (in the manner of shawarma, or even just pieces of meat, vegetables, even sausages), cover the other, etc. The edges need to be pinched. Place the product on a baking sheet, bake in the oven until golden brown (temperature 180 degrees). Cut the finished "pie" into slices and bring to the table. Serve with ketchup or your favorite sauce. Bon appetit!
