Choosing the right texture

Coarse grind cornmeal provides a satisfying texture and a rich flavor, ideal for most bread and porridge recipes. For cooks who prefer fewer crumbs, medium grind cornmeal has a finer texture without sacrificing the distinctive and tasty corn flavor. In addition to texture, cornmeal is available in a diverse and versatile range of colors. Yellow cornmeal provides the traditional, lightly sweet taste that most people associate with cornbread. Blue cornmeal offers a sweeter and nuttier flavor and is ideal for southwestern meals. White cornmeal is more savory and has a more delicate flavor.
