Instructions
Whisk together masa harina, flour,
and salt. Stir in water to thoroughly
combine. Knead dough just until it
comes together into a smooth ball,
about 2 minutes . Transfer dough to
a bowl, cover with a towel, and let
rest 15 minutes .
Form dough into 12 golf ball-sized
portions using wet hands or a
#20 scoop (heaping 3 Tbsp.). Place
balls on a baking sheet and cover
with a damp towel while preparing
filling.
Scooping the dough makes
for easy portioning. If using
the #20 scoop, make sure
they are generous scoops to
get 12 golf ball-sized portions.
