    Masa is treated with lime, just use calamunce. To do it right the corn is soaked in lime and dried before being ground. Then they dry it again and grind it once more to make it a fine corn flour.

    It would be much easier if you could buy the masa it rather than making it.

    Masa is slaked in lime, the mineral (calcium hydroxide), not lime, the fruit!

    We buy Masa Harina in Cebu at Ayala supermarket.
