Best of Proof: Nixtamalization and Indigenous Science


Listen Later

What is nixtamalization, and why is it so important when preparing corn-based dishes like tortillas and pupusas? Navajo reporter Andi Murphy walks us through her journey of nixtamalizing blue corn, and embarks on an Indigenous information exchange with chefs, scholars, and poets in the process.

Want to make your own corn tortillas? Check out ATK’s recipe for Homemade Corn Tortillas.
