Bob's Red Mill Organic Masa Harina, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free (4-Pack, 24 Oz.)

Bob's Red Mill Organic Masa Harina — 4-Pack × 24 oz, Gluten-Free

Masa harina is not simply ground corn — it's nixtamalized corn, a process developed by Mesoamerican civilizations over 3,500 years ago. Dried corn kernels are soaked and cooked in an alkaline solution (typically lime/cal), which breaks down the hull, softens the kernel, and — critically — unlocks niacin (vitamin B3) that would otherwise be bound to the corn and indigestible. Nixtamalization also significantly increases the calcium content and improves the amino acid balance of the corn. The result is a uniquely flavorful, nutritionally superior flour that forms the authentic foundation of corn tortillas, tamales, pupusas, and gorditas. Bob's Red Mill uses certified organic corn and traditional milling methods to produce masa harina with the true taste and texture of traditional Mexican and Central American cooking.
