About Masienda herloom blue corn

Masienda Heirloom Blue Corn is a nutrient-dense, non-GMO corn variety rooted in traditional Mesoamerican cuisine. Grown by independent farmers, this heritage crop is celebrated for its rich flavor and vibrant blue hue, a sign of its high antioxidant content, particularly anthocyanins. Packed with essential nutrients such as fiber, protein, and complex carbohydrates, it supports sustained energy and digestive health. Blue corn is lower in starch compared to other corn varieties, making it a wholesome option for creating tortillas, tamales, and other dishes. Naturally gluten-free and minimally processed, Masienda Heirloom Blue Corn aligns with clean eating principles while honoring centuries-old agricultural traditions. It’s a flavorful way to introduce healthier whole grains into your diet, although like all carbs, portion control is key if managing calorie intake. Perfect for anyone seeking authentic, nutrient-rich ingredients rooted in sustainable farming practices.
