@eatwithafia: This masa recipe took me more than 20 tries to perfect and even a trip back to northern Ghana to get the details right. You do not need baker’s yeast to make this recipe. For the best flavour, it is just millet, water and patience (with a touch of sugar). This is hands down one of the best recipes in my book and my mum’s favourite too. The main adjustment I made to get this recipe to work in my Canadian kitchen is to ferment it a little longer (given that our ambient temperature is lower than what you will get in Ghana) and I used the soaking liquid throughout the recipe. People don’t typically reserve the soaking liquid but I needed all the help I could get #masa #ghanaianfood #millet
