Nixtamal (California Style Partially Cooked Corn)

September 4th, 2007 · No Comments

Ingredients:

1 Gallon Water

1/4 cup unslaked LIME

8 cups (field) CORN

Mix water and lime in a galvanized container.

Add corn and cook until bubbling stop. Cook (but do not boil) from one to two hours (until corn starts to peel). Remove from heat and let stand a day.

Separate hulls from kernels and wash corn in several cold water rinses to remove lime traces. Drain and grind into mash.
