Organic Corn Tortillas 5"
Vista Hermosa uses whole-kernel organic corn slowly cooked in water and slaked lime. This thousand year old process of Nixtamalization used by the Aztec & Mayans releases valuable nutrients otherwise unavailable. The corn is then ground in a "molino" where the corn is passed between with hand-carved volcanic stones to produce a “masa” or dough of exceptional quality, flavor and authenticity ready to be pressed and cut into golden tortilla-sized discs.
Producer notes:
Vista Hermosa was born from the spirit and resolve within the sturdy brick walls of Tacombi, a taqueria dedicated to sharing authentic Mexican taco culture. Recognizing that the tortilla is the golden foundation of a quality taco—and unable to find local sources that met their high standards for freshness and flavor—Tacombi made the decision to craft their own, the traditional Mexican way. From scratch. Every day.
Since then, Vista Hermosa has continued to produce a full line of corn and flour tortillas, totopos, and bottled salsas that preserve and celebrate the true flavors of Mexico.
