Midnight Purple Corn Steamed Buns
Say hello to the newest member of the Suncore Foods® Powder Family...MIDNIGHT PURPLE CORN! Purple corn was a staple in ancient civilizations of South America and is widely grown in the present day. It originates from ancient purple corn called Kculli, which has long been revered as "the plant of remembrance," fitting for its striking color. What better way to pay homage to this wondrous crop than to create airy and fluffy steamed buns! And what better way to perfectly match the deep color of purple corn than to use the corn itself in powder form! Shall we say...cornception?
