Description
Masa Harina is made from corn that has been cooked in limewater and then ground into a fine powder.
The difference between regular corn flour and masa harina (maseca) is that regular cornmeal is simply ground corn, and it is not as finely ground as maseca flour.
This means that maseca flour is better for making dishes like tortillas and tamales, which require a finer texture.
