Great River Milling Organic Whole Corn | Whole Grain Yellow Corn for Milling, Cooking & Baking | USDA Organic, Non-GMO, Kosher | Ideal for Cornmeal, Grits & Hominy | 25 Lb

High quality whole kernel milling corn. Milled up fresh and tasty!

I used this to mill cornflour for a corn casserole and it turned out great! I had been using popcorn to mill but this corn is much tastier and better for milling!

Absolutely love this. I have a grain mill and used this after I milled it to make cornbread and grits! I am very pleased with my purchase!

Here's the latest update: They sent me a new 25 pound bag of corn and it's simply fantastic! It looks really clean, 100% corn, and all of the kernels are whole, it almost looks washed and sorted. Sounds like they got off to a bad start selling the stuff at the bottom of the silo. I will definitely be buying this again. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ OK, so I changed my rating from one star to five stars. I contacted the manufacturer and they admitted that they have had a problem with grain at the end of their bins not being as clean as they should be. They are going to send out another bag of corn that is clean, no charge! I don't care how bad a product is, if the supplier stands behind their product and is willing to replace (or refund) that's all that really counts in my book! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ {My original review}: I've been looking for new grains for my grain mill and thought this would make a good corn bread. When I opened it up I found that it was extremely poor quality. There are corn stalks and other seeds in the mix (wheat?) as well as seed pods from who knows what kind of plant. And about half of the corn is broken into bits so it would be tough to even clean it up for a mill. My only hope is to screen out the whole corn with hardware cloth and pick out the corn husks. I'm guessing I'll probably lose half of the corn just cleaning it up. I would return it if I didn't get it so cheap, it was about $27 with free shipping and the shipping costs were about $20, so in reality I got if for about seven bucks. I'll probably try to clean it up or if I find something better I'll feed it to the squirrels. This is supposed to be for a grain mill and not for feeding wildlife, correct? 8(

I bought this during the pandemic July 2020. It had been stored in a good grade bucket with a gamma seal. Dent Corn should last between 10-20 years stored this way. I opened my up today to get some out, first time in 4 years and it has DISINTEGRATED INTO UNUSABLE CRAP and Smells Like BLEACH OR CLEANER! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY! This product should have been good to use until at least the year 2030!!! This product is total crap! Must have been full of bugs or some kind of fungus! BEWARE!

Something has changed at Great River. The last two bags were awful. One had broken, dusty corn. The second one was full of little black animals. That’s two bad bags in a row. I contacted the company by phone, website email AND email to two of the managers I had talked to before back in 2019. No response from anyone. Terrible customer service. Terrible quality. Oh, my! I'm floored. I make artisanal tortillas for local chefs and I am always trying out new organic dent and flint corn. I prefer to buy one pound lots to try cultivars out. And here I had no choice but to buy the 25 pounds, but did it anyway because I loved the packaging, loved the description, loved their website, and had the convenience of buying it at Amazon. So it arrived and when I opened the lovely brown eco bag, the corn was fresh, whole, clean, and beautiful. I nixtamalized it and found, to my delight, that it grinds beautifully in the hand corn mill, in the Nixtamatic, and, with a few more minutes of nixtamalizing, it also grinds to a perfect consistency in a common food processor without losing color, body, texture, or aroma. It makes tortillas like those I had in the mercados in Mexico. The tortillas cook to a gorgeous deep golden color, they rise quite nicely, are aromatic and supple. I've been making artisanal tortillas for about five years and have tried many different organic corn. The Great River corn is, by far, the most delicious. So much so that I will feature it in a demo for a professional association of women in the culinary field. I love it. Here's the nixtamal recipe for tortilla afficionados: 2-3 cups Great River corn. Wash in a bowl full of water, dump the water. Fill the bowl up again and discard the "floaters." In a non reactive pot (stainless steel, clay or enamel) measure out 6 cups filtered water. Add 2 TBS of cal (slaked lime/calcium hydroxide) and stir. Add the two cups of corn. Heat in low heat for 40 minutes. Do not let it come to a simmer. At 40 min, increase heat to high and boil for five minutes if you will grind the nixtamal in a hand mill or Nixtamatic; boil for 10 if using a food processor. Turn off heat, cover the pot and let sit, unrefrigerated, for at least 7 hours and up to 24. There is no advantage in steeping it more than 7 hours but you can, in case you are busy, with no loss of flavor, texture, aroma, or nutritional value. Steeping for less than 7 hours yields a good tortilla, but waiting 7-12 hrs pays off in terms of pliability and depth of flavor. Pour the cooked corn onto a colander and rinse under the tap rubbing the corn between your hands. Dump the rinsed corn into a bowl, fill it with water and rub the corn again between your hands. Dump that water (it will have pericarps floating in it). Repeat this washing and rubbing four more times. Drain the washed corn in a clean colander and then spread the corn over paper towels. You can now grind it with some salt for flavor enhancement. 2 tsps of salt for this amount of corn should suffice.

This is food grade, organic whole corn that I intend to store for grinding my own cornmeal. It was clean and unbroken. No bugs, as someone else had reported. It costs about 83 cents per pound. I got eight, one gallon mylar bags and two half gallon jars from 50 lbs of corn. I haven't gotten to grind in my Country Living Grain Mill yet. I'll update when I do! Update: This cornbread was made with the meal from the whole corn and the flour from my hard red winter wheat berries. I ground them in my Country Living Grain mill. If you like REAL cornbread, not corn cake, you'll love it.

I do like their grains. And buy others from them
