Chef's Notes
Do not skip resting the masa dough. It allows the corn flour to fully hydrate and prevents your gorditas from cracking under pressure.
Pro Tip
If your dough cracks at the edges while flattening, your hands are too dry or the dough needs an extra splash of warm water.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Trying to split a piping hot gordita straight off the comal without letting it rest for sixty seconds will result in third-degree steam burns and a destroyed pocket.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Why did the gordita go to the gym? It wanted to be a little less chubby, but gave up and ate more cheese.
The Culinary Science
Nixtamalization breaks down the hemicellulose in corn, releasing niacin and making the calcium bioavailable while giving masa its distinct aroma.
