About Arepa de choclo
Arepa de choclo is a traditional Colombian and Venezuelan dish made from sweet corn flour or fresh ground corn mixed with water, salt, and sometimes a touch of butter or milk to form a soft dough. Typically griddled, this golden-yellow arepa has a sweet flavor and tender texture that pairs beautifully with fresh cheese, often served as a topping or filling. Originating in South America, arepa de choclo is a staple of the region's cuisine, enjoyed for breakfast or as a snack. Nutritionally, its main ingredient—corn—is a good source of fiber, vitamins, and complex carbohydrates, providing sustained energy. However, its nutritional profile can vary depending on preparation methods; additions like cheese or butter increase calorie and fat content. While indulgent versions can lean heavier, its simplicity and use of unprocessed ingredients make it a wholesome choice when consumed in moderation.
