Production Process – Nixtamalization

“Masa Harina” is the name for corn flour that has undergone the nixtamalization process. This process involves soaking dried corn kernels in warm water with lime, which causes three important changes:

• ->Calcium enrichment: The corn is enriched with calcium, which significantly improved the diet of ancient Mexicans, especially before the arrival of the Spanish, when dairy products were not consumed.

• ->Easier cooking: The nixtamal process reduces the cooking time and temperature of the corn, preserving B vitamins that are unstable at high temperatures.

• ->Better forming: The corn dough obtained from this process binds and forms more easily, allowing for simple preparation of thin flatbreads such as tortillas.
