Maseca Instant Corn Masa Flour, 1.8kg

Product Information

I used to let this dough rest for an hour or so but I don't worry much about that step anymore. Flour tortillas benefit from resting as it allows some of the gluten to relax, but I'm not convinced it's necessary for corn tortillas.

Gordita literally translates to chubby. The reason for this naming is because this food item is essentially made up of shortened tortillas that make up for their size in girth. They are meant to be cooked on a large pan and filled with all manner of burrito-style ingredients. If you’ve walked around in Mexico, chances are that you’ve passed gorditas that were being prepared at stands atop a large metal ¨comal¨ skillet. Let’s take a closer look at what sets Maseca and Masarepa apart. Maseca’s distinctive flavour and aroma arise from the intricate process of nixtamalisation. Serve & Savor: Serve these golden delights hot and let your senses revel in their unique, irresistible taste.

With Maseca, salt, a dash of oil, and water, you can create soft, warm, and delicious tortillas that serve as the perfect base for tacos, enchiladas, or just about any Mexican dish you fancy. IngredientsThis unique method imparts a subtly tangy taste and infuses Maseca with its characteristic scent.In contrast, Masarepa’s charm lies in its simplicity. I usually dump the mixture onto a work surface and add the rest of the water incrementally while kneading it into a cohesive ball.

To prove that anyone can make corn tortillas at home we'll be using a casserole dish to flatten the dough balls -- no tortilla press needed!

To top it all off, you can’t go wrong with cheese and onion to really set off that fresh and juicy taste. Many people love to top it all off with cream so much that they won’t eat a gordita without it. Once you get the hang of this recipe you can really let your creativity flow and fill your gordita with whatever your heart desires in the moment. Popular options, particularly when there is considerable appetite, are pulled pork but basically, any stewed or roasted meat works great.
