Awesome

[@7Longoria]

Wow! That's a lot of work!

[@Jay0Cay]

When you say you can make large batches and freeze, are you freezing the cooked kernels or the actual masa dough?

[@SaltyCocina]

The cooked kernels

[@chikn10ds43]

Does this process also work to make masa for tamales? Love the videos you make they're helpful.

[@SaltyCocina]

Yes it does, but if you are making a large amount I would suggest using a molino.

Hi thanks for your video please how long can they stay in the fridge . And if the bread is taken out from the fridge will it become thick and dry or will they stay soft ? thanks.

[@benoitboulay2395]

How much water did you use to cook the kernels?

[@ladylight007]

Can you use this masa to make tamales?

[@julitoyranela7928]

was wondering my tortilla kept sticking on my hand any suggestions?

[@Charm326]

Could you then use that to make pupusa’s?

[@SaltyCocina]

I use it for gorditas which is almost the same.

[@Charm326]

@Salty Cocina thank you!

Question? Livestock whole corn 🌽 the 50 pound yellow corn for animals is about $20.00. Is this safe for human consumption? Is it safe ? Your thoughts 😊

[@SaltyCocina]

Although price is good, I don't believe it's for human. consumption.

Question ? . Livestock whole corn 🌽 the 50 pound bags yellow corn for animals are about $20.00. Would this corn work for humans consumption? Is it safe ?

[@marilynsamaniego4652]

I didn't hear you mention anything about the skins having to be off of the corn. Do they have to be because I read and a massive book that the skins have to be off the corn

[@netandruescavapoos9928]

Can you ise popcorn kernals please?

[@GracefulHaka]

For the corn, you want to find dried dent or field corn, which is starchy, not sweet. Sweet corn and popping corn will not work.

[@netandruescavapoos9928]

@@GracefulHaka thats great thank you very much for your help :)

[@SaltyCocina]

I’ve never es tried it with popcorn. I will give it try and see if it turns out. It’s different shape but I’m sure it will work. I will keep you posted.

[@WagonWheel-wu2rs]

Mine don't puff😕

[@benoitboulay2395]

Try turning them once or twice again!
