Description:

Corn (Maize)is an honored crop that was considered “a gift of the gods” by the Indians of Mexico.  The Pueblo Indians and their ancestors the Anasazi relied on corn, beans, squash and chiles for sustenance.  These early crops became firmly entrenched in the culture, forming the basis of New Mexican cuisine even before the Spanish arrived.   Purple Corn has a rich purple color and when cooked a flavor that is intense and earthy with a soft yet firm texture.  These hearty kernels add a unique corn flavor to stews, soups and casseroles.
