what is parched corn
Parched cornâdried corn which has been roastedâis one of those legendary Native American foods, like pemmican, which you hear about but donât necessarily ever get to try. Parched corn is a lightweight, long-keeping, high-energy trail food.ee, real parched corn should be made by stripping the whole dried kernels off of dried ears of especially bred parching corn. Corn youâve grown yourself, of course. Parching corn is bred for good flavor and soft texture, and the red breeds are supposed to be the very best.
