Corn smut, also known as "Ustilago maydis," is a fungal disease that affects maize (corn) plants. It causes the formation of galls or tumors on various parts of the plant, notably the ears and kernels, which can appear swollen and grayish. While it is often considered a pest and can reduce crop yield, corn smut is also regarded as a delicacy in some cuisines, particularly in Mexican dishes like "huitlacoche." This fungus can be harvested and used as a flavorful ingredient, adding a unique taste to various recipes.
