Chapalote Corn

Ark of Taste Products > Chapalote Corn

Once a staple food for the American Indians, this ancient corn species was the first corn to enter the US from Central America. The Chapalote kernels vary in color from bright yellow to deep coffee, and grow on small, cigar-shaped ears that taper on both ends. The plants are particularly well-adapted to the arid subtropical climates of the southwestern US. One of the best ways top enjoy this crop is in the form of a sweetly-flavored traditional American Andrian drink called chapalote pinole, which is currently produced by the Boudreaux family in southern California.
