Corn Masa, the heart and soul of authentic Mexican cuisine, is a culinary marvel steeped in tradition and flavor. Originating from ancient Mesoamerican civilizations, this versatile dough is crafted from dried maize kernels soaked in a mineral lime solution, a process known as nixtamalization. This technique not only softens the kernels but also enhances their nutritional value by making essential nutrients more bioavailable.

Once soaked, the maize is ground into a fine flour, which forms the base of Corn Masa. This dough serves as the foundation for a myriad of beloved Mexican dishes, from tortillas and tamales to gorditas and pupusas. Its unique texture, earthy aroma, and rich flavor profile make Corn Masa a cornerstone of Mexican gastronomy, celebrated for its cultural significance and culinary versatility.

At Frida Cantina, authenticity is our guiding principle, and that's why we exclusively use authentic Corn Masa in our dishes. Derived from ancient Mexican traditions, Corn Masa is the heart and soul of our culinary creations. Handcrafted with care and reverence, our Corn Masa dough forms the foundation of our flavorful tortillas, tamales, and other Mexican delicacies.
