Maizal
133 Jefferson Ave M6K 3E4 Toronto, ON, Canada

We want to announce that Maizal is not operating currently. We want to thank you for your support these past 6 years. Con mucho amor.

Been a long time since we've been wanting to get more of this conversation going. Check out the first part in our blog segment of "What is Maíz?" We will probably add some things to the blog (wanted to add images of teocintle, but unlike the rest of our collection we don't have any and would have to throw something from the internet, and not sure how copyright stuff works yet haha). AND if you are really interested, look out for our next Noche de Maíz event coming soon. Read up on http://www.themasaboy.ca/blog

Getting our new batch of Salsa Verde ready for the market. See you today at 3pm at Sorauren Farmers Market. We also have tamalitos and hot atole to keep you warm :)

Ordenen su masa para los tamalitos, ya que este sábado es 2 de febrero. Ven a recogerla recien molida este viernes o sábado. 100% nixtamal, maíz criollo. Para ordenar escriban a [email protected] #Tamales #Candelaria

When you look outside, do you blame us #GoneFishin

Have you read Canada's national food guide? What do you think about it? Drink mostly water, learn to cook, reduce #foodwaste and consume vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and plant based protein foods are the big ones that standout for us. It also tells us how important it is to know where and who your food comes from... with Maizal, that is easy peezy. https://food-guide.canada.ca/en/

Our food business in a few words. #ZeroFoodWaste #Compost #CloseLoop #CircularEconomy #TripleBottomLine

The restaurant is still closed but we are back in Farmers Markets, see you today at Sorauren Farmers Market from 3pm to 7pm. We are serving hot tamalitos and atoles. If you also need catering or book a private event contact us for mor information.

We make different batches of #nixtamal because we have different #heirloom maiz varieties. Lately we've used a lot of purple and yellow. Here you can see when we switch out one batch and add another, the #tortillas get "smeared" with the other variety of maíz. #nixtamalli #GrownLocally #NonGMO

For those that were interested in the blog we constantly updated on the Maizal website (where we went a little more in depth into our farm work, the story behind our food, and our R & D work in Mexico) we have moved it. You can now read up on these subjects and more at themasaboy.ca
