Cal - Lime Powder is food-grade calcium hydroxide in a fine powder. Its main job is nixtamalization, the traditional corn processing step behind masa for tortillas, tamales and other Mexican corn products. It is a functional ingredient rather than a flavoring, and it gives tortilla plants and specialty producers dependable performance in large-batch prep and repeated production runs, with the same result on every run. It also covers the other specialty applications where food-grade lime is called for.
Santa Maura sells Cal - Lime Powder in bulk only, from 50 lb upward, with every order quoted at the day's market cost. Add it to your quote request to get current pricing.
