Masa harina (literally "dough flour") is flour made from dried masa. I have used about 2 tablespoons in chili and that was masa flour mixed with a little water to thicken the chili. When I don't have that I use regular flour mixed with water.

Is commercial masa used for making tamales gluten-free?

No. Cornstarch is the endosperm ground into a fine powder used primarily as a thickener in soups, stews, gravy etc, although it has other household uses as well. Masa is a mixture of flour and water used in many recipes. It can be made with various grains, but the most common are corn, hominy, and wheat. Tortillas are a very common use of masa, however there are myriad uses, mostly in Latin American cuisine.


Can you use white cornmeal for cornbread?

Yes, you can :). The first time I ever had homemade cornbread, they had used white cornmeal. I've also actually used Masa Harina flour ( like what you use to make tortillas) in a pinch and it baked up beautifully and had a "Mexican" flavor to it. My husband actually preferred it to the regular cornbread I make with yellow cornmeal. So, long story short- yes, you can!
