Harina de Maíz, or corn flour, is a finely ground product made from dried maize kernels. A staple in Latin American and African cuisines, it plays a key role in recipes like tortillas, tamales, arepas, and cornbread. Naturally gluten-free, corn flour is rich in carbohydrates and provides essential nutrients such as dietary fiber, B vitamins, magnesium, and antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, which support eye health. Its whole-grain varieties retain more nutritional benefits compared to refined ones. Low in protein and fats, it’s best paired with nutrient-dense ingredients. While it is a healthy option for those with gluten intolerance, moderation is important as excessive consumption may lead to blood sugar spikes. Harina de Maíz’s versatility and mild flavor make it a popular alternative for both traditional and creative dishes worldwide.
