    Maybe someone has already asked you this, because I buy the already prepared yellow masa, and we add lard and mix it. My problem Is if I don’t use enough lard it’s dry and when I use to much it’s sticky so I can’t find the balance. Does the ice help with that because a lot of my Mexican friends who come teach me have never used ice and I’ve never even heard of using ice. I was gonna make it for the new year but I have leukemia and I’ve been so sick, but I’m gonna make it. So any tips would be so useful to my sick behind! Thank you Jenny!

    Question: Why the Baking Powder? I use the Masa Preparada as well but usually only add in salt and lard (Sometimes I will add in the chili mix) but I am so curious about the baking powder. TY

    The baking powder helps the masa inflate, same reaction as when you use it on cake/or cookie batter when baking.
