I posted an old time method for fermenting corn a while back, and I actually got to eat some last night! An older man brought some to my mother who is a postmaster. I ate it on a salad, and it was wonderful!!! He told mom to rinse it and cook it in real butter, and that is how she ate it and liked it. Straight from the jar was good for me. Just thought I'd share!

I didn't see the original recipe, but I'm curious. I'm living in Nigeria at the moment, and a popular street food is a fermented maize pancake called "masa". It's sour and chewy, a bit like injera ... so yummy. However, despite the name "masa", the maize here is not nixtimalized (sp?) like masa harina. So even though it is fermented, I was wondering about the nutritional value due to the lack of nixtimalization.
