If we look at the composition of corn in more detail, we can find a lot of useful substances in it. Among the vitamins there are many vitamins of group B, PP, C, and minerals are also in abundance: fluorine, potassium, iodine, phosphorus.
The nutritional value of this crop is significant and amounts to about 100 kilocalories per 100 g of product. However, due to its digestibility, it is quickly digested, and beneficial substances are absorbed into the blood through the walls of the stomach. So even nutritionists recommend eating corn.
As for the effect on the human body, this cereal has an excellent effect on the digestive system, normalizes metabolism and increases overall vitality. For dietary purposes, it is difficult to find a better product. However, if you are underweight, have poor appetite, or have a stomach ulcer, it is recommended to abstain from corn.

In cooking, corn has firmly occupied its niche, pushing other grains and beans off the podium. European cuisines have become especially fond of corn.
So, it is usually customary to boil the cobs and eat them with salt or sauce. To preserve corn for the winter, it is canned. In turn, canned corn is used to prepare vegetable salads, main courses and side dishes. In some countries, corn is ground for flour, which is then used to make pies, puddings and cereals.

- 1 carrot;
- greens - to taste;
- mayonnaise - for dressing.
Step-by-step instruction
- Let the beans cook. Of course, it’s better to fill it with water overnight in advance - this way it will cook faster. If you don’t have any time at all, you can use canned beans for this recipe, and then simply drain the liquid from them and use them.
- We also boil carrots - you can directly in the peel. Then remove it and cut the carrots into cubes.
- We also cut cucumbers, peppers and onions into cubes. Chopped onions can be scalded with boiling water before use - this will remove the unpleasant bitterness from them.
- Finely chop the greens.
- Drain the liquid from the pineapples and corn. If the pineapples are rings, cut them into small pieces.
- Chop the greens.
- Mix everything in a bowl and pour in mayonnaise.
You can replace the mayonnaise in the recipe with sour cream, and for piquancy, add a little mustard to the dressing (the author of the video is Elena’s Vegetarian and Lenten Kitchen | Good Recipes).

Those who don’t like dry meat salads, but at the same time gobble up crab sticks on both cheeks, eating them with canned corn, should like my salad. With a well-chosen dressing, I’m talking about mayonnaise now, it turns out moderately salty, with a pleasant sweetish taste, quite light and very juicy. Of course, you may not agree with me, but in order for the meat salad not to be dry, it needs to be well seasoned with mayonnaise. And if it is also layered, then coat each layer with mayonnaise. There is no benefit to it, just like there is no taste.
Corn salad with crab sticks and eggs also cannot be called super healthy, but at least this dish can be devoured without a twinge of conscience at night or before bed, when you really want to put something in your mouth. To be honest, I don’t like the traditional salad with crab sticks, to which rice is added, in general, that’s why I don’t like it, but I eat this salad with pleasure (when I’m not on a diet).
Corn salad with crab sticks and eggs
By the way, this crab salad without rice may well become a dish from the “In a hurry, or Guests on the doorstep” category, because only boiling the eggs will take you some time, everything else is prepared very quickly.
step by step photo recipe for Crab without rice
Ingredients:
- canned corn - 1 jar,
- eggs – 2 pcs.,
- crab sticks – 1 standard package,
- mayonnaise - for dressing.
Cooking process:
If you bought the crab sticks frozen and not chilled, place them on the table, let them sit for a while and defrost naturally. When they have become soft and you can’t feel the ice when pressed, set the eggs to boil. I'm sure everyone remembers how to do it correctly. Although, just in case: put the eggs in a saucepan, fill with cold water, throw in a pinch or two of salt and put on high heat. After the water has boiled, cook for 7 minutes - no more, otherwise you will overcook them and they will lose their taste: the white will become rubbery, the yolk will turn green-gray.
Remove the packaging from the crab sticks and cut crosswise into small slices. It’s more convenient to collect them in a pile and cut them in one fell swoop. Transfer to a bowl.
Chop the cooled and shelled eggs. Don't try to turn them into egg dust. They should be about the same size as the pieces of crab sticks.
Add to bowl. Drain the juice from the corn and add it to the existing ingredients.
Squeeze out the mayonnaise and mix.
You can eat this immediately, without waiting for it to sit in the refrigerator. Bon appetit!
