Nutrition Facts Corn Flour (Masa Harina)
Corn Flour (Masa Harina) is a milled grain ingredient used to build doughs and batters; whole-grain, refined, enriched, and unenriched versions differ in composition. It provides protein, dietary fiber, potassium, and calcium. Choose a dry, intact package without insects or moisture damage and store it airtight in a cool, dark place; refrigeration extends the quality of whole-grain and high-fat products.

Interesting fact
Milling changes more than particle size
Whole-grain flour retains bran, germ, and endosperm, while refined flour removes much of the bran and germ. Finer particles also expose more surface area to enzymes and oxygen, affecting digestion and storage stability.
