Botanical Name - Zea mays

Corn silk, or maize tassel, is the glossy, thread-like material that serves as a cushion between an ear of corn and its outer husk. While most people discard corn silk when preparing corn-on-the-cob, the silky string was considered a valuable raw material to Native Americans, as well as to the indigenous peoples of Central and South America.

Aside from a refreshing, mild flavor, corn silk offers a healthy dose of potassium and vitamins C and K. The herb is also a good source of dietary polyphenols, plant-based compounds with antioxidant activity.

Cornsilk powder may be encapsulated as a dietary supplement. The powder can also be infused in a carrier oil like sweet almond and used topically.

Powdered corn silk can also be sprinkled into soups, stews and other foods during cooking.
