I was wondering if anyone out there has heard of anyone growing (and selling) white dent corn that's suitable for making corn tortillas? I have tried before with regular field maize and though it works, the taste is only OK. Any help or leads on this would be very appreciated. Thanks, John

Hello All, I grew Hickory King and had good luck with it.

There are several masa threads on this fourm if you do

a forum search or google will bring the threads up.

If you have someone in the states that can sen you a care

package, check out South East Seed Exchange for

OP dent corns. Also their Texas Gourd Corn, also good

as a roaster when it's in the milk stage.

If you live in a windy area, HK get 10/12' tall and does

not like it. SESE has good discriptions of the seed and

they are top quality seed.

I got a bag of this to try at Marko here in Korat to try as

I haven't got the weeds cut to plant my TGS.

Hi Rice555, Thanks very much for your reply. I have looked through the masa threads here and they have been helpful.

I am a cook, but not much of a farmer. I was hoping to find someone already growing a masa-friendly variety that I could buy to supply my restaurants. If anyone is interested in selling a masa corn, please let me know and I'll be a regular buyer!

find a brocker and have a 20 container shipped from the America's west coasts.

Most grown in the US is contact for mills. Not a big market commodity.

Try the trade minister at the Mexican Consulate BKK

Good luck.
