Usually all corn Tortillas are nixtamalized. Masa ( nixtamalized corn flour) is used because straight corn flour actually tastes bad in tortillas and tamales.
Unfortunately most corn is GMO so be sure to buy organic tortillas
Organic Masa is available but hard to find. I have seen it on Amazon.
The blue corn is the most expensive but after checking out the nutrition and enzyme content the white, yellow and blue are all pretty much the same. If your really dedicated you can quickly nixtamalize your own corn kernels at home with Pickling lime available at Walmart . Be careful buying lime that it is the right kind and food grade buying pickling lime cuts out that risk.

I would be honored! Thanks for asking.

thanks!

Thanks so much!

I am not sure where Katie lives, but I have definitely found that the cost of food does vary sometimes dramatically depending on where you live and secondly on where you buy your food. For example, I don’t know if this includes the cost of organic vegetables or cheese. So with the dollar menu’s, we have found that some people may pay more or less for their ingredients. Thankfully with this recipe, even if it cost ten dollars to make (it would probably cost me that much), it is supposed to feed eight people, so is still a very frugal recipe.

I use my Silpat to roll out tortillas on; it works GREAT! I can get them really thin and there’s less flour on the surface of the tortillas to burn on the griddle.
