What it is
Degerminated yellow cornmeal is made from the inner part of the corn kernel, with the germ removed. This process extends the shelf life of the cornmeal. It is a coarse flour ground from dried dent corn.
Why it's used
Cornmeal is used as a thickener and texturizer in baked goods, batters, and as a coating for fried foods. It provides a slightly gritty texture and a mild corn flavor. It is commonly found in cornbread, muffins, and as a base for polenta.
Health notes
Degerminated yellow cornmeal is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of carbohydrates and some fiber. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated corn and corn-derived products. No significant health concerns are associated with typical consumption levels of cornmeal.
Allergen info
Corn is not one of the nine major allergens designated by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
