    Colombian mazamorra is made with dried cracked corn and water, then served with milk and panela or bocadillo on the side. There are different versions of mazamorra in Latin America.

    Mazamorra Antiqueña is a dish very popular in the Antioquia department of Colombia, and is the region in which I grew up. I posted a simple and quick recipe to make mazamorra made with canned hominy some time ago, but I've been wanting to post my mom's recipe for a while now, which is made from scratch, and I finally made it this week.

    How to make Mazamorra AntiqueñaPin

    I grew up eating Mazamorra Antioqueña, but I wasn't a huge fan of it as a child. My grandmother and my mom always made it at home and they absolutely loved it! For me mazamorra is kind of bland, but I know many Colombians love this traditional dish, so here is the recipe for you.

      Wow, I can't believe it's that easy! Question- Is the corn you're using the same as the kind you buy for popcorn?

      You can buy the corn in a Mexican store most likely in the united states. That is where I got mine... They are everywhere... You'll want cracked... And no, it is not chicken feed either. That is treated with stuff for them.

      Never saw this recipe before but now I want to try it for breakfast. I think I would be one to add a bit of sweet touch to it as well. Have a great weekend!

      Soy Colombiana y me gusta la gastronomia por sus deliciosos platos como el arroz con pollo, maduros con queso, arepas. pan de queso, enpanadas,bunuelos, sancocho con costilla y pollo y los tamales Huilences son los mejores. Vivo aca desde el ano 1965 y estuve en Colombia una sola vez en el ano 1968 y gozo preparando estos sabrosos platos para mis nietas e hijos.
