Humita

This savory packet of fresh corn, onion, and spices is steamed in corn husks, delivering around 180 calories per serving. The dish’s ancient origins highlight its authenticity, and the corn provides a natural sweetness that contrasts with savory notes. Compared to typical tamales, Humita is lighter, with a texture that is 40% more delicate. The steaming process preserves the corn’s integrity, creating a moist, tender result. This dish is a testament to Argentine indigenous heritage and a must-try for those seeking wholesome, historical fare.
