TRADITIONAL CORN TORTILLA MAKING CLASS

Traditionally made corn tortillas are prepared using a process called nixtamalization which yields an intricate host of synergistic benefits- unlocking the corn's flavor, digestibility, and nutritional content. In this class, we will learn how to make traditional corn tortillas from Indian corn grown at Mendocino Organics. We'll discuss the history, benefits, and chemistry of this traditional food technology, and go through the process of making real homemade corn tortillas. We'll cover the different types of corn and alkali used, and discuss ways in which you can make and grow everything you need at home. We'll end the workshop with our own handmade corn tortillas, paired with local ingredients sourced through SHED.

To ensure a class running at SHED, we must fulfill a minimum requirement of attendees.
