Corn tortillas

Mesoamerica · More than 3,000 years

Nixtamalization: corn cooked with lime (the mineral, not the fruit). It frees niacin, makes masa, and is one of the great food technologies. A corn tortilla is not a flat piece of bread. It is chemistry you can fold.

Nice lore. The pan is still empty.
