Ornamental Corn
$4.49
2 ct
The sound of rustling leaves and the aroma of smoke from wood-burning fireplaces are hallmarks of autumn. Really, the fall harvest season wouldn't be complete without ears of ornamental corn embellishing the decor in homes and businesses. While there are some instances where this corn can be eaten, these ones are specifically for decorative use and come with the husk attached. They have beautiful blue, orange, yellow and black kernels, and will look striking on your holiday table! Click on this item to see the full description.
Description: According to folklore, these colorful ears were named after the Indigenous people of North America. They'd been cultivating it for years when they introduced it to the Europeans who arrived in the Western Hemisphere in the 15th century. Unlike the typical niblets or corn on the cob that you serve at mealtime, it corn isn't sweet. It's also got a pretty starchy texture when it's cooked. You could compare it to hominy, which is used to make grits. It can be ground to make flour, or the whole kernel can be reserved for popcorn. Ears with larger kernels are typically used for flour or cornmeal production, while those with small, pointy kernels are perfect for popcorn.
