Iwisa No.1 Super Maize Meal in a 2.5 kg bag, a white maize meal from South Africa for soft porridge, stiff pap and side dishes.
Iwisa Super Maize Meal comes in a white paper bag with a lime green lower band. The front carries the red Iwisa name over a large green and white shield with the words No 1, and Super Maize Meal in white letters on the green band, with 2.5 kg at the bottom corner. Small round green and red badges sit down the left side of the front. Lifestyle photos show the bag on a wooden counter beside a bowl of smooth white maize porridge, and on a dark kitchen counter next to a plate of firm white pap shaped in a mound with a chunky tomato and pepper relish. As general background, mielie meal, also known as mealie meal or maize meal, is a relatively coarse flour or cornmeal made from maize in Southern Africa. Commonly, kitchens cook it slowly in salted water, stirring often, and adjust the water for soft porridge or firm pap.
