TIERRA DEL MAIZ

Mexican corn, also known as maize is a staple ingredient in Mexican cuisine. It has been a part of the Mexican diet for thousands of years and continues to be a beloved food in the country and around the world. Maize is believed to have originated in Mexico more than 10,000 years ago. The ancient Mayans and Aztecs were among the first to cultivate and consume maize, using it in a variety of ways, including as a primary ingredient in tortillas, tamales, soups and other delicious dishes. They also used maize in religious ceremonies and believed that the god Quetzalcoatl gave them maize as a gift. Mexican corn is a nutrient-dense food that provides a variety of health benefits. It is a good source of dietary fiber, which can help reduce cholesterol levels and improve digestive health. It also contains essential vitamins and minerals, including vitamin B6, iron, and magnesium. In addition to its nutritional benefits, Mexican corn is also a gluten-free grain, making it a popular choice for people with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. Buen Provecho!
