BIO Pre-cooked corn (2 pcs)

Corn is native to America and was brought to Europe by Columbus. In the 16th century, Spanish and Portuguese traders spread it in Asia and Africa, and it reached Australia through Dutch and English mediation. Today, it is the most widely cultivated field crop.

Interesting facts

It is estimated that Native American tribes began collecting its valuable produce about 10-12 thousand years ago, and cultivating it 5-7 thousand years ago. Yet, its existence and origin remain a true mystery, partly because its wild form is unknown, and partly because it would no longer be able to reproduce without human intervention. The kernels, in fact, cannot fall out of the cob on their own. During cultivation, white, yellow, pink, red, and even blue-grained subspecies of corn have emerged.

Usage

The fresh kernels can be separated from the cob and used in salads or as a vegetable side dish. Cooked corn dishes require little seasoning besides salt.

Storage

Store in a refrigerator between 4-6° C.
