What it is

Stone ground yellow and blue corn are varieties of corn that have been milled using traditional stone grinding wheels. This process grinds the entire corn kernel, including the bran and germ, resulting in a coarser texture and a more robust flavor compared to degerminated cornmeal. It retains more of the corn's natural oils and nutrients.

Why it's used

Stone ground corn is used to add texture and a rustic corn flavor to a variety of foods. It is often found in baked goods like cornbread and muffins, as well as in tortillas, polenta, and snack foods. Manufacturers use it for its distinct taste and hearty mouthfeel.

Health notes

Corn is a grain and a source of carbohydrates, fiber, and some vitamins and minerals. The FDA considers corn and its derivatives to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for use in food. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated corn and its components, but no specific health concerns are typically associated with its consumption at normal dietary levels. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical intake.

Allergen info

Corn is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
