ORIGIN OF PANOCHA

Panocha or panocho is a term that comes from the Latin panúcula that means “cob”. From this perspective, its use in Spanish is applied to the same fruit with an elongated shape and with many grains contained in it. Also, it can be applied to the fruit of the panizo and millet.

In the Murcia region, corn on the cob is very typical and is used in various preparations. For this reason, the people of the place began to be called as panocha and it became a colloquial name of the area.
