      He is making from the ground with the best ingredients and following the ancestral recipe (Nixtamalizacion) that not even a lot of mexican even know these days, and he is doing all of that in another country, another continent, its fair if he star charging you a couple extra bucks for that tortilla and yeah, a really good tortilla can be expensive in Mexico.

    Adding "eria" to the end of a noun in spanish makes it a store that sells the noun. In this case, a store that sells tacos. Generally, a taqueria has a more limited menu than a full service Mexican restaurant. In the USA we have access to the proper corn - field corn not sweet corn. Field corn is not sweet, has a lot of starch and keeps for centuries. (i'm not kidding! they find it in ancient Indian ruins, perfectly preserved by dryness). We use it as food for cattle, as Europeans do as well. We have the proper calcium carbonate product in easy to find packages too. Food grade calcium hydroxide with no additives or preservatives is used making hominy from corn, or even making pickles out of cucumbers!

    Rene meant well by this, I am sure, but it was misleading to show a molcajete as though it had been used to grind a nixtamal masa. One would use a metate. Also, the use of a comal distributes the heat more effectively.

    Rocio Sanchez ahould have done the talking. Masa just means dough. However, corn processed in an alkaline solution is called Nixtamal. In this case, it is a Nixtamal masa. Alternatively, the quicklime solution could have been replaced with a solution of hard wood ashes.

      You have failed to understand that limestone and or wood ash is at first dissolved in water and along with the corn. When the nixtamal is ready, the water is drained away thus removing the limestone or wood ash. You proved my point. Roció Sánchez should have done the talking.

    in question of Mexican cuisine remains unknown.
    an embarrassment of how the cultural appropriation shown in this video, in the chef's explanation, only repeated what others wrote.
    in another occasion that they happen to talk about Mexican cuisine make the true masters of the matter share, because if the one that is explaining the very or almost nothing of the knowledge of the matter in question is like being in a gallery with the works of most beautiful art in the world and the host just because he won art awards shows us the place with a hand lamp in the middle of the night and the true guardians of art do not allow them to turn on the light of the whole room so that they appreciate all their artistic wonder

    Oh, I´m wordless.... Rocio , ¿por que dejaste que te robara el microfono ese tipo? Ni siquiera se hace así la masa,. Si tu que puedes no haces respetar la receta de un platillo, nadie lo hará. World: NO, please, don´t think tortillas are made in such elaborated way. 1st. you need a mill for the masa, you can´t get a really good one on the "molcajete" (you get a very loose masa, resulting on breakable tortillas) 2nd: when mixing, make sure to disolve all the flour. 3: You must have a certain humidity on your hands, so when you turn the tortilla, it won´t adhere to your hand. (this apply too to the plastic you put on the press, it´s easier) or use a spatula... AND, put it on the "comal", wait for bubbles to appear, turn it around and here you decide how soft you want it: to roll to to make "burritos", to fold it as quesadilla, or hard (durita)... Or just come to México¡¡¡¡

    Everyone makes the same mistake over and over again... tortillas are not just mexican. Most central american countries each have their version of the tortilla, and I will dare to say, even better than the mexican version. A tortilla for us, is not just a side dish, or the cohesion agent of a meal... tortillas are part of our lives, our heritage and our history. Oh, and by the way, REAL tortillas are hand made, clapping, not using wood or metal tools.

If you’re saying the price of tortilla is $0.50 (the cost of ingredients +overhead) then keep it there. A “story” to make it more expensive is ridiculous.

      And please don't claim that he is a close friend; objectively we only know that he's her boss, and bosses rarely are friends, much less close ones.
      Also objectively, we know that she is the one from whom this originated, which in every other aspect of life takes priority over any other person taking credit and/or being a spokesperson for their ideas and work.
      Also, let's not confuse conscious bigotry with uneducated behavior. He is not a bigot from everything I've seen and heard of him, but the way he has been raised and lived can condition him to be nearsighted on some issues, as it does to most of us.
      Mansplaining evolved from men having been conditioned by everything from their own family structure and daily interactions to the kind of jobs they have held and how those do or do not incorporate women, how they envision women sexually, and their own roles in society with respect to women, which are unfortunately conditioned to be more protective rather than peer-respectful.
      As far as the crew being paid, they are their to get a story, and rich, interesting stories go beyond one person or thing; they encompass the ecosystem that brought about the story, which is how we, the viewers, find common (and therefore self-interested) touchpoints that we find engaging. Unfortunately he only alluded to her standing there, silently. I imagine this short piece would have been more interesting and engaging if he hadn't behaved as he did.
      We can leave the topic of white people taking credit for the work and ideas of people of color for another day because what I've said already is enough to think on.
