Delicious! - The preparation of Nixtamal was a daily task for the housewife, and even now in old Mexico it still occupies up to six hours of a woman's day. The kernels were steeped in lime overnight to loosen the hull, then boiled and skinned, and finally ground to dough by crushing the kernels between a grooved stone roller and a metate (a lava rock stone slab). The Nixtamal was usually made into tortillas. Taste these white corn chips and you will be transported to the Aztecs world, and you too will pray to Chicomecoatl for more.
