它是什么？

很简单，玉米面是指任何地面干玉米。它不是由我们备受喜爱的甜玉米制成的，而是从一个非常淀粉的玉米中制成的。玉米面可能是white或者yellow, depending on the type of corn used. With just slight differences in flavor, the two may be used interchangeably.

The most important distinction for cornmeal is whether it’s全粒或者degerminated。像小麦和其他谷物一样，玉米仁由三个部分组成：富含油脂和维生素的细菌；纤维壳；和淀粉状胚乳。全谷物玉米面包含这三个部分的一部分，因此具有更丰富，更丰富的味道，并具有两倍的脱粒玉米面营养价值。但是，由于细菌的油含量很高，因此全谷物玉米面迅速变腐蚀。

Cornmeal also varies by grind—fine, medium, and coarse—although product labels don’t always make this distinction. Medium- and fine-grain meals are most often used in baking, because they produce a lighter texture. The coarsest grain is usually reserved for polenta.

玉米面的特殊品种包括blue cornmeal, made from blue varieties of corn;玉米粥, which refers to both the popular Italian dish of cornmeal mush as well as the coarse-ground cornmeal used to make it;grits, a very coarse-ground cornmeal that can be made from white or yellow corn or hominy (corn treated with lime); andmasa harina, a fine cornmeal made from hominy and used as the staple flour in Latin American kitchens.

How to store:

Keep all varieties of whole-grain cornmeal in the freezer or refrigerator to keep them from becoming rancid. Degerminated cornmeal can be stored in a covered container at room temperature.
