[QUOTE="Dave_B, post: 41398, member: 1504"] If I'm understanding this correctly, the honey does add sweetness but it's primary use is as a fungicide, that is, to help keep the medium from molding; the vinegar also does that. The sugar would feed mold spores. Thanks to the OP, very comprehensive instructions. I was looking for something like this. The specialty corn flour is likely going to be more commonly available in areas where many Latinos have settled. I'm going to try using a corn flour or meal that is available locally. [/QUOTE]
