Re: Home ground cornmeal.
What kind of grinder is it, Worth?
I don't have anything like a grinder or mill, other than an old blender which is okay for coarse grinds. I tried making millet flour once, and it was full of little grits not fine as I like it. But I didn't try a sieve either. Not sure I have one fine enough for flour.

Just a cheap grinder I picked up at the Mexican market.Bower wrote: ↑Sat Jan 21, 2023 3:06 pm What kind of grinder is it, Worth?

With my machining skills I'll improve on it considerably.

I have some Blue Clarage dent I grew last year that I plan to grind shortly. I've never tried a blue corn yet and looking forward to the cornbread and grits!

I went on and ground me a mess of blue cornmeal today. The blue cornbread was very spectacular and paired quite nicely with dinner!

Re: Home ground cornmeal.
The cornbread looks good and a pretty color. How productive was the corn for you, 2 ears per stalk or more ears? I have some seed for it but haven't grown it as yet. How did your corn bread taste?Uncle_Feist wrote: ↑Sat Jan 21, 2023 3:48 pm I have some Blue Clarage dent I grew last year that I plan to grind shortly.

Figured if it turned into a dud for us use it as a chicken feed.

Re: Home ground cornmeal.
Not overly productive for me, 1 medium sized ear and a small nubbin per stalk. The cornbread was great, the grits not so much. The unappealing non creaminess of the grits was probably due the low glycemic index of blue corns in general.Danny wrote: ↑Tue Apr 04, 2023 7:03 pmThe cornbread looks good and a pretty color.

Re: Home ground cornmeal.
That is true re the grits. May have to just use it for corn bread and corn cakes and maybe chicky feed.
