Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the major crops of the world for feed, food, and
industrial uses. It was originated in Central America and introduced into Europe and
other continents after Columbus trips at the end of the 15th century. Due to the large
adaptability of maize, farmers have originated a wide variability of genetic resources
with wide diversity of adaptation, characteristics, and uses. Nowadays, in Europe,
maize is mainly used for feed, but several food specialties were originated during these
five centuries of maize history and became traditional food specialties. This review
summarizes the state of the art of traditional foodstuffs made with maize in Southern,
South-Western and South-Eastern Europe, from an historic evolution to the last research
activities that focus on improving sustainability, quality and safety of food production.
