Thanks for posting this. I get frozen corn tortillas from a local farmer that are good, so I don’t know if I want to go through the hassle of making my own. He also has the best corn chips!! Simmons Family Farm http://www.farmboyflapjacks.com/

However, I would love to get dent corn and soak it for tamales!! I will see if I can get corn from my farmer.

Hi- I found your blog and have been reading some of your recipes for the past few days. I have to say I’ve thoroughly enjoyed them and I am very grateful for all the valuable information you are posting. I’ve been wanting to make corn tortillas and have also read a lot of the Weston Price information as well as Ramiel and I am wondering if it is necessary or would it make a difference if one soaked the corn before fermenting or because of the fermenting one does not need to also soak it before hand? I am still a bit confused about whole grains and the proper procedure for cooking them. I am looking into getting Sally’s book soon. Thank you in advance!

Iris –

This is so strange. I wonder if the post didn’t transfer over when I moved my blog. I am checking into it.
