Giant white corn, also known as Peruvian corn or "Cuzco," is known for its large, plump kernels and a robust, chewy texture. It's a staple in South American cuisine, incorporating it in chowders, salads, and a popular snack, "cancha" – Peru's version of popcorn.
This unique variety, distinct from the regular sweet corn, introduces a delightful starchy and hearty flavor to your meals. Soaked and boiled, then either baked or fried, these kernels morph into a crunchy, nutritious accompaniment or a snack on its own gaining popularity worldwide.
