Dried Corn (Makaidana)

Dried corn, known as makka or bhutta in India, originates from maize (Zea mays) domesticated in southern Mexico around 9,000 years ago from wild teosinte. These hardened kernels, harvested at maturity and dried naturally or artificially, store indefinitely for grinding into cornmeal, hominy, or polenta, and remain staples in tortillas, porridges, and animal feed worldwide.
