Traditional Stone Ground Tortillas

“With De Maiz tortillas you taste the difference because you can taste the process.”

Product

At De Maiz, we take pride in using the traditional “Nixtamalization” process to create the finest tortillas on the market. We source our corn directly from small, sustainable family farms in Mexico, where it is handpicked to ensure exceptional raw material quality.

Our skilled use of volcanic millstones expertly grinds and cooks the corn into ‘Masa’ (a soft dough), before shaping and baking it on a ‘Comal’ (a traditional Mexican frying pan), resulting in the most authentic and delicious tortillas around.

Available in varying sizes and thicknesses, our tortillas are a wholesome, gluten-free, low-fat, and low-sugar food that is packed with excellent nutritional value.

Nixtamal – Short story

The Nixtamalization process is a traditional Mexican technique in which corn kernels are cooked in an alkaline solution. This process softens the outer skin, enhances the nutritional value of the corn, and makes it suitable for grinding into a dough.

Tortillas

Våre tortillas er laget fra bunn av hvor nixtamalisert mais blir omgjort til Masa. Det er grunnlaget for utallige meksikanske spesialiteter. Tortillas bakt på en Comales kan variere i størrelse og tykkelse. Våre tortillas har utmerket næringsverdi, glutenfri, lavt fettinnhold og sukker.

Alt dette kombinert gir deg en utsøkt tortilla!

About

Unlike other inferior products that are made from dry corn flour, gelling agents, and preservatives, we pride ourselves on solely using fresh nixtamal in our products, that is ground using a volcanic stone.

Our tortillas and other nixtamal corn products contain four simple ingredients only: corn, water, sea salt, and lime.

We are committed to paying homage to the rich and vibrant culinary traditions of Mexico and showcasing the endless potential of Mexican gastronomy. Our mission is to connect more people to the cultural and culinary richness of the Mexican kitchen – one tortilla at a time.”

“De Maiz was created from a deep passion for Mexican cuisine, and a dream of Norway having its very own “nixtamal tortilleria and molino” – a testament to our dedication to providing authentic and high-quality tortillas for our customers.”

We know it can be difficult to choose something new. That’s why we’ve created a small introductory package with tortillas made from 3 different types of corn. You should of course be completely satisfied with the quality and we feel confident that after you (and your customers) have tasted the authentic taste of Mexican tortillas you will never go back to powder-based industrial tortillas.
