Spicyness:

PAN is a corn flour manufacturer that is very popular in Latin and South America. The 1-kilogram packages of this white cornmeal are particularly popular for making arepas and empanadas, for example.

What sets it apart from other corn flours?

PAN cornmeal is not nixtamalized but pre-cooked (no alkaline treatment). This process ensures that the cornmeal absorbs water very quickly, making it ideal for arepas and empanadas. However, it results in less elastic tortillas—so if you want to make elastic tortillas, you should opt for a different nixtamalized cornmeal instead.

Compared to Maseca cornmeal, this cornmeal has the advantage of being better protected by its packaging and generally having a slightly longer shelf life. Once opened, you should store the cornmeal in an airtight container to maximize its shelf life and best preserve its freshness. Of course, this cornmeal is also gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian.

You can find a quick guide to making arepas further down on this product page under “Recipe.”

Recipe

Basic recipe for about 8–10 arepas
- 2 cups precooked cornmeal
- 2.5 cups lukewarm water
- 1 tsp salt
Optional: A dash of oil or a pat of butter for the dough

Step-by-step preparation
- Mix the dough: Pour the water and salt into a bowl. Gradually add the cornmeal and knead with your hands until a smooth, pliable dough forms.

- Let rest: Let the dough rest for about 5 minutes so the flour can fully absorb the moisture. If it’s too dry afterward and cracks when shaping, knead in a little more water.

- Shape: Form the dough into balls about the size of a tennis ball and gently press them into flat patties (about 1.5 cm thick for fillings, thinner as a side dish).

- Frying: Heat a little oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the arepas on both sides for 4–5 minutes each until golden brown.

- Baking (optional): For an extra crispy result, you can then bake them in the oven at 180–200 °C for 5–10 minutes until they sound slightly hollow when tapped.

Tips

Store in a dry place. Close tightly after opening.
