Masa (Spanish, from Latin massa, "mass") is a dough made by adding water to the harina (flour) of any grain. It is an ancient foodstuff, prepared and used in pre-historic times. For example, an exhibit at the Getty museum includes pottery from the Cycladic cultures (ca. 6500 BC) with decorations showing the entire bread-making process. Masa nixtamalera is nixtamalized maize dough, made from corn boiled with lime and ground in a molino (a mill dedicated to that purpose) or on a metate (flat grinding stone). Thus, it is made from wet hominy, reduced to a dough by grinding, and not from corn flour. Masa harina is a dry flour made from the lime-processed dough.
