Is Custard And Pap The Same? by doksblog(m): 11:35am On Sep 30, 2021
Before we delve into the main discussion, let’s set the tables straight by saying that both pap and custard are made from corn (maize).

Pap is made from fermented, wet milled grain of either sorghum or corn and is commonly eaten in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya,Cameroon and some other west African countries.

While custard on the other hand is made from edible corn starch (used for pharmaceutical products or drugs) which is produced from Holland, China and India obtained from the endosperm of the corn kernel).

Actually, there’s been an ongoing food ‘war’ between Nigerian Pap and Custard. But this post isn’t going to be about the winner or loser; instead, it explains what makes them different.

Similarly, preparation is carried out the same way, by mixing the starch with cold water to dissolve and then hot water to thicken.

Although Pap and Custard are both made from the same core ingredient, corn, but differ in taste, colour, texture, and storage.
