Grew up on parched corn. We often mixed it in with ordinary popcorn to add variety, as well. Both sets of grandparents were farmers, so sweet corn was easy to come by.

You can eat corn to get enough protein, but corn is deficient in essential amino acids, so you'd eventually come down with pellegra. You have to pair corn with beans and process the corn with lye to get the full complement of amino acids.

I have read through a few tutorials and watched this video. I keep seeing references to use of "sweet corn" and that may well be good and even the best choice. But, many of the sources tout how parched corn was a product used by native Americans and pioneers. They did NOT have sweet corn so far as I know. The varieties they had were more like our modern day dent and flint varieties we grow for meal and feed corn. Sweet corn is a relatively recent development, one of the early varieties is called Hickory King or Hickory Cane. That is the corn from which I have had parched corn. By today/s standard, Hickour King is not a very sweet "sweet corn". Sweet corn varieties popular now are super sweet. Are the super sweets just as good for parching?

You can eat the flint and dent corns as "sweet" corn when the kernels are still in milk. It's not nearly as sweet as modern varieties of sweet corn, but it'll fill your belly.

Oil, fat, lard, tallow, etc are not necessary for parching. Indeed as you noted Bill it is counterproductive. I recommend not using any form of fat. I have parched amaranth, barley, buckwheat, oats, quinoa, peas, lentils, spelt, wheat and several varieties of corn without any oil. I did several pounds of each and they all lasted for several years. While it is a good idea to use a breathable bag, I only used ZipLocs and never had an issue. Parched food having contact with fat or water is the quickest route to spoilage.

According to surviving 18th century texts, the Indians would mix it with water to make a porridge. Europeans mixed it with less water to make a thick paste. That paste was then formed into cakes and cooked in hot coals or a fry pan with some animal suet for flavor.

Hey, Brad, although this is a good video for short term survival the glaringly apparent misconceptions of modern preppers and survivalists are most are followers, not innovators or and they fail to think these things through before presenting them to others. I've been studying the How-To of nixtamalization using wood ashes and the indigenous peoples' from Mexico, Central and South America knew this necessary step to prevent diseases from the lack of absorption of vital nutrients. Evidently many of the North American natives and for sure the European people didn't know about this critical step. They took maize (corn) seed back to Europe and many planted it and ate it for long enough to end up with Pellagra and probably other mineral and vitamin deficiencies. Our modern corn processing skips this paramount step and this is terrible because we have the technology to make corn more digestible and the nutrients more absorbable easily without such input of intensive manual labor. Thanks.

Getting it off the heat. Won't pop unless it gets hot enough. William is mostly correct. Any variety of corn can pop if the moisture content and heat while cooking are enough. (Parching is a specific type of cooking, just as boiling or blanching are.) None of the others will pop as well as flint corn or popcorn though.
