What it is

Organic corn masa flour is finely ground corn that has been treated with an alkali process called nixtamalization. This traditional method, used for thousands of years, makes the corn more digestible and unlocks certain nutrients. The resulting flour is a staple in many cuisines, particularly Mexican and Central American.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use organic corn masa flour as a primary ingredient for making tortillas, tamales, and tortilla chips. Its unique texture and flavor contribute to the characteristic taste and structure of these foods. It is also used in some baked goods and as a thickener.

Health notes

Organic corn masa flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of carbohydrates and some fiber. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated corn masa flour. No significant health concerns are associated with its consumption at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

Corn is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. Corn masa flour is gluten-free.
