What is Masa Harina?

Masa harina is a finely ground corn flour produced from nixtamalised maize, a traditional process used in Mexican cooking. Nixtamalization enhances the flavour and nutritional value of the corn and creates the distinctive taste and textures used in authentic corn tortillas and tamales.

Using Masa Harina in Mexican Cooking

Masa harina is most commonly used to prepare fresh corn tortillas, tamales and other traditional Mexican dishes. When mixed with water, it forms masa dough, which can be pressed into tortillas and cooked on a hot griddle.

Many dishes made with masa harina are served with sauces prepared using Mexican dried chillies or tomatillos, making it a key ingredient in authentic Mexican cuisine.
