Looking For gluten-free Masa Harina

[gfwb]

I got a tortilla press for Christmas, and I really want to make some authentic corn tortillas. But, I've learned that corn tortillas are made from masa harina (corn flour/meal treated with lime), and not just corn meal or corn flour. The only masa harina I've found is Bob's Red Mill, and it isn't identified as gluten free. Has anyone used Bob's masa harina? Or, has anyone found a gluten free masa harina?

Thanks,

masa harina is gluten free - the lime is not a gluten ingredient.

(it's actually not the citrus lime, but the chemical, to process the corn.)

I have never seen masa harina that was anything except corn treated with lime. Just because it doesn't say gluten free doesn't mean it isn't.

When you get to feeling adventurous, mix a bit of xanthan gum into the masa before you add the water and see if it makes the tortillas flexible enough to use as burrito-type wraps. Inquiring minds want to know!

Or at least I do, anyway!
