Yellow Maize Flour – Versatile Corn Flour for Traditional Cooking

Yellow Maize Flour, also commonly known as maize flour, cornmeal or makki ka atta, is a finely milled yellow flour made from maize. It has a naturally warm golden colour and a distinctive mild corn flavour, making it a versatile ingredient for flatbreads, baking and savoury cooking.

A traditional staple in North Indian and South Asian cuisine, yellow maize flour is especially well known for makki di roti, the classic Punjabi maize flatbread. It is also widely used in corn breads, tortillas, batters and other dishes where the characteristic flavour and texture of maize are desired.
