Sprouted Maize/ Corn Kernel Flakes (400 gms) ORGANIC

Maize flakes are a type of cereal product made from corn kernels that have been processed to produce flattened, flaky pieces. The process of making maize flakes typically involves several steps, including:

1. Cleaning: The whole corn kernels are first cleaned to remove any impurities.
2. Soaking: The cleaned corn kernels are soaked in water to reduce the anti-nutrients.
3. Sprouting: The soaked corn kernels are germinated under proper conditions. (This process involved is what makes Goodness Farm’s flakes unique, a first-of-its-kind that is patented recognized for its imperative nutritional profile)
4. Drying and roasting: The sprouted corn kernels are solar-dried and gently roasted in uruli.
5. Flaking: The corn kernels are passed through a roller mill to flatten them into flakes.
6. Drying: The corn kernels/ maize flakes are then oven dried to reduce their moisture content and improve their shelf life.
7. Packaging: The dried maize flakes are packed into bags or containers for storage and distribution.
