Blue corn flour is made from dried and ground blue flint corn. This species of corn has a natural blue colour, which gives dough made from its flour a similar blue hue. Harina azul is made by soaking the blue flint corn in water with lime. This is called nixtamalized flour, which makes the corn flour easier to digest.
Blue corn flour, historically, was the variety of corn flour known to be preferred by the Native American tribes the Hopis, the Navajos and the Pueblo. It is now enjoyed throughout Mexico and around the world.
Blue corn flour is made from corn, which makes it naturally gluten free.
