Size and Appearance: Evaluate the size and appearance of maize. Premium quality maize typically exhibits uniformity in size, with kernels ranging between medium to large. The color will be vibrant, with hues of yellow or golden, indicating proper ripeness and quality. Additionally, maize kernels will appear plump and well-formed, without signs of damage or discoloration.
Aroma: While maize typically does not have a strong aroma like spices, it has a subtle sweet scent, especially when fresh. Maize with any musty or off-putting odors is avoided, so that it will not indicate poor quality or improper storage conditions.
Taste: You can conduct taste tests to assess the flavor profile of our maize. It delivers a sweet and slightly nutty taste, characteristic of fresh, high-quality maize. The flavor is well-balanced and not overly bland or starchy.
Moisture Content: Moisture content of maize is checked, as excessive moisture can lead to mold growth and degradation of quality during storage. The moisture content will typically be around 14% or lower to ensure freshness and prevent spoilage.
Foreign Matter: Maize is inspected for any foreign matter such as debris, husks, or damaged kernels. High-quality maize is clean and free from extraneous materials.
Pesticide Residue: Our maize complies with international food safety standards regarding pesticide residue levels. It’s essential to verify that our maize has been grown and processed using safe and sustainable agricultural practices.
