Look at this photo... In Haiti it is easy to dehydrate corn: Just put it in the sun! lol...

Dried corn from my little Haitian farm cut ahead of hurricane Maria.

Removing the corn kernels from the cob is called "grennen mayi" in Haiti.

After you remove the corn kernels from the cob the next step is "Moulin Mayi" grinding the corn to turn in into Haitian cornmeal (Mais Moulin)

Gade photo saa... Haiti - Mayi Bouyi... Lè w bouyi mayi, se youn nan fason ki pi fasil epi pi gou pou kwit epi manje li. Yon mayi bouyi pi bon pou sante w paske li konsève tout eleman vital nitritif yo.

Metòd sa a bon anpil paske li elimine nesesite pou lwil e sa bon pou sante ou.

Mayi genyen anpil eleman nitritif tankou Vitamin C pou anpeche-w malad, asid folik ki esansyèl pou selil kò a ap grandi, Fib pou ede desann nivo kolestewòl ou, ede dijesyon w epi anpeche pwoblèm konstipasyon...

Ou manje Mayi bouyi?

Kisa ou panse de sa?
