Corn
Corn is a versatile ingredient in cuisines worldwide — eaten fresh, grilled on the cob, or used as kernels in salads, soups and side dishes. It’s known for its sweet, starchy kernels and broad culinary use from Latin American to North American and Asian cooking. Nutritionally, Corn is an energy-dense starchy vegetable providing primarily carbohydrates and modest protein; it contains useful amounts of B vitamins and minerals such as magnesium and selenium and is a reasonable source of dietary fiber. When used alongside protein-rich foods it helps round out meals and contributes to fullness. Overall, Corn is a generally nutritious, satisfying component of meals: it delivers fiber and micronutrients and pairs well with higher-protein ingredients to boost meal quality.
