Condensed cream of golden corn soup

Condensed golden corn soup is a processed culinary ingredient consisting of a thick, concentrated soup made from yellow corn, also known as golden corn, which has a sweet and characteristic flavor. This product is sold in a condensed format, meaning its water content has been reduced to facilitate storage and transport, requiring dilution with water or milk at the time of preparation.

Golden corn is a variety of corn native to the Americas, particularly cultivated in regions such as Mexico, Central America, and parts of the southern United States. Its intense yellow color is due to the presence of carotenoids, including beta-carotene, which also acts as a precursor to vitamin A.

In cooking, condensed golden corn soup is widely used to prepare quick and tasty recipes, such as creamy soups, stews, or side dishes, providing natural sweetness and a creamy texture without the need to add fresh corn or additional ingredients. Furthermore, it provides nutrients like energy-rich carbohydrates and fiber, although its condensed version may contain added sodium, so it is recommended to check the labels.

Synonyms in Spanish used in Hispanic America: condensed golden corn cream, creamy yellow corn soup, concentrated sweet corn soup.
