Typical delicacy of Brazilian cuisine, canjica, also called mungunzá in the northeast, is widely consumed especially in June and Julina holidays throughout the country.
In the more classic versions, it is basically used corn for hominy with ingredients such as milk, coconut milk, cinnamon and sugar, or condensed milk. The preparation is generally quite easy and results in a tasty dessert that pleases most people for being "sweet in size".
But the typical creativity of the Brazilian people when it comes to cooking has led to innumerable versions of hominy (including some savory), giving everyone the chance to make this dish the way they want: besides salty versions, there are recipes light, lactose free, with peanuts, paçoca, dulce de leche and more!
And although it is more common if you consume warm hominy (being ideal for cold days), nothing prevents the candy to be consumed warm or even cold? This implies that it can be prepared successfully at any time of the year (and not just during the June, July and Cold months)!
