About this listen

In this episode of Nixtamalization: From Ancient Ash to Modern Masa, host Clare Delish explores the cutting-edge science behind making the 3,000-year-old corn preparation process sustainable for modern food production, from enzymatic processing and extrusion technology that eliminate wastewater, to the delicate balance between environmental innovation and preserving cultural tradition. Through Clare's signature blend of technical depth and accessible storytelling, you'll discover how researchers are revolutionizing masa production while honoring the Indigenous genius that created it—and why the tortilla on your plate represents both ancient wisdom and 21st-century problem-solving.
