VALFRUTTA Sweetcorn Vacuum-Packed

Our Sweet Corn vacuum packed is harvested and processed on the same day. The sweet corn vacuum packed is steamed to preserve the sweet flavour and crunchy texture; without the addition of additives. The ingredients are: corn, water, salt.

The sweet corn processed by Conserve Italia is all of Italian origin. The raw materials, coming from strictly “No GMO” seeds, are planned and carried out in Emilia-Romagna, in the countries of Piacenza, in Lombardy and in to Cremona and Lodi areas. After harvesting, the cobs are transported to the factory where they are first deprived of the leaves that wrap them and then they are shelled with special machines that preserve the entirety of the grains despite their extreme delicacy. The sweet corn grains are first washed in running water, then pass to the first sorting phase by means of electronic optical reading machines, followed by the manual one with which the residual defective or stained grains are eliminated. Selected and carefully washed corn is canned with the addition of a modest amount of water, salt and a small component of sugar. The boxes are hermetically closed under vacuum packed, i.e. without air inside, and then move on to the sterilization phase in large containers that carry out the so-called “steam cook”.
