Blanco Nino Lightly Salted White Corn Tortilla Chips 170g

Lightly Salted
There are few places quite as beautiful as Celestún, a wetland in the Yucatán that attracts thousands of migrating flamingos to its mangroves every winter. These lagoons are also home to ancient Mayan salt-flats, where we source the salt for these chips. There we've partnered with Traspatio Maya, a social enterprise which supports and protects traditional salt harvesting techniques.

Made the Aztec way
We select the very best whole non-GMO corn, which we cook then steep overnight, before grinding into a dough called masa using our hand-carved, Mexican volcanic stones. An ancient process called Nixtamalisation. While still hot, this masa is shaped and baked into tortillas. We then leave the tortillas to rest overnight, before cutting and lightly frying them to become the most delicious, authentic tortilla chips.
It takes three days from start to finish, but we think it's worth the wait.

Inspired by Mexico
In pursuit of the perfect tortilla, I set out on what would become quite a serendipitous journey across Mexico. Visiting the milpas, molinos and tortillerias, I picked up a new nickname Blanco Niño and learnt the secret to making truly authentic tortillas. It's this thousand-year-old recipe that inspired the chips you now hold in your hand.
While the Blanco Niño Tortilleria is based in Ireland, we owe our existence to the extraordinary people and history of Mexico. Our team is passionate about Mexican food and dedicated to doing the ancient Aztec recipe justice every day.
Traditionally Mexican. Unexpectedly Irish.
