Abstract

See full text

A short-time low-pollution method for preparing masa flour is provided wherein whole grain is first partially cooked in a hot alkaline treating solution to achieve at least about 15% gelatinization and loosening of the bran fraction of the grain. The partially cooked grain is then debranned and is subjected to a flash dehydration for quickly subdividing and reducing the moisture content of the grain. The dehydrated grain is then milled to create an acceptable masa flour.
