Flour Corn "Blanc d’Astarac".
White Gold of Gascony! High-protein variety for flour and grits.
An early-ripening and drought-resistant variety of grain corn hailing from the sunny southwest of France. This is not sweet corn for boiling, but a valuable food variety for processing.
Characteristics:
* Plant: Vigorous, 150–200 cm tall, adapted to hot climates and lack of moisture.
* Ears: 15–20 cm long, tightly packed.
* Kernels: White, beautiful, uniform. Distinguished by very high protein content.
Use:
1. Culinary: Ideal for making snow-white corn flour and semolina (polenta, grits) with a delicate taste.
2. Farming: Due to its nutritional value, the grain and green mass serve as excellent fodder for livestock and poultry.
HISTORICAL REFERENCE:
This heirloom variety originates from the Gers region in France (historical area of Gascony). It has been grown for centuries by local farmers in the Astarac valley.
