''Curau'' ((:kuˈɾaw)) is a Brazilian sweet custard-like dessert made from the expressed juice of unripe maize, cooked with milk and sugar. The term ''curau'' is used mostly the southern states such as São Paulo, Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul. It is also called ''corá'' () in Minas Gerais, ''papa-de-milho'' (:ˈpapɐdʒiˈmiʎu) "corn porridge" in Rio de Janeiro, and ''canjica'' (:kɐ̃ˈʒikɐ) in the northern half of Brazil (Northeast and North regions). == Typical recipes == Curau recipes typically call for about 1/2 to 2 liters of milk and 1 to 3 cups of sugar for 10 ears of unripe maize or sweet corn. Other ingredients may be added, such as a pinch of salt, a tablespoon of butter, etc.. The milk may be replaced in part by coconut milk or condensed milk. To prepare the curau, the corn kernels are grated off the ears and put into a cloth bag. The bag is then squeezed while adding the milk little by little, so as to extract as much juice as possible from the ground corn mass. Alternatively, the ground corn and milk may be processed with a blender and then passed through fine sieve. The extracted liquid is combined with the sugar and any other ingredients, and thickened to a creamy consistency by cooking on the stove for about 45 minutes (or in the microwave oven for 12–15 minutes), stirring frequently. The cream is then poured into appropriate containers (dessert cups, muffin molds, shallow baking pans, etc.) The curau may be served warm or cool (when it acquires a firm custard-like consistency). It is typically dusted with powdered cinnamon. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Curau」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
