love it when people keep it real. he wanted the home grind to be the best but it didn't make the grade. respect man

When I saw it said "Frito Style", I couldn't pass it up! They're a favorite around the world!! Thanks a bunch for sharing with us!!!

Loved this! More sugar content in your homegrown corn led to darker color. If this is undesirable to you, place the prepared and cut dough in the freezer for 20 minutes beforehand. The main difference in flavor depends on whether the corn is a flint or dent variety. The masa is made from flint corn, and the cornmeal from dent. It comes down to how much starch the plant converts to sugar in end.

The price of the FRITOS has gone up TRIPLE THE PRICE. Thanks for showing us how to make them YUMMY ~ My favorite is the Fritos Jalapeno spice corn chips ~ There habit forming at 7 dollars a small bag ~ NO WAY

This was super helpful! Thanks for making this!

They all look tasty. I've never met a corn chip i didn't like. Thank you for sharing.

I made some the other night. This is what happen and my insight . I tired a mixture of masa and cornmeal, i put my salt and jalapeno powder into them. I roll them out about 1/8" thick. This is what happen. They made like little brown pillows. YUM the texture was like a potato chip and made them even better, the darker brown ones even tasted better> than the golden brown. NOT BURNT ~ here where i failed ! i bag them up hot, and the moisture made them soggy THE TASTE IS BETTER THAN FRITOS and more crunchy like a potato chip. My insight what if you use just jalapeno juice rather than water, what happen if you put some corn starch in them? Things where going to just have to try. But roll them out thicker to make them PILLOWS ! Plus use a pizza roller, to cut them the size your want ~ sprinkle dry masa on your past. Roll the past out on saran wrap, and bend the saran wrap to lift them off>> THERE EXCELLENT ! 👍

You always have a way of making me homesick!!

Good job! Looks easy to make.

Excellent !! Thank you

Thank you for sharing!

I remember my mother bringing home a small bag of a new snack called "Fritos". The name was weird. After the first taste I laughed and said that this is simply fried corn mush with salt and pepper! The concept from poor food to international snack is pure genius. The basic recipe is the same as corn dodgers and dozens of other names around the world. My favorite was lime flavored. All the online recipes forget the pepper. I am going to try adding sweet potato and chili powder for flavor and ditch the salt. The basic recipe begs for variations. The suggestion of using peanut oil sounds like a winner. I wonder if Asian flavors would be interesting? Also Arabic and East Indian?

They look so yummy 😋

they look so yummy. good job on the organic chips!

You always have fun video ideas. I like to see what you come up with.

I love that keep it up

TY for the tip!

I love trying to learn smth new definitely ima try this at home for my kids thanks Larry 😍😍

Good job, I will have to give that a try.

Great stuff brother

Just made the mass chips. Thank you so much!!!! Great recipe. It's so so so good ❤❤❤

Great video. ❤️

Dang~! They all look great~~!! The longer oil cooks, the darker foods become generally, so this may be partly responsible. I can't wait to try these! Thank you~!

I'll have to try that

I love corn chips and will get out my deep fat fryer so I can enjoy these tomorrow.

Another great, scratch made recipe, Larry. Take care and stay safe, Rob

Awesome video! I should try this out some time.

Thank you for posting your video Larry I will actually trying making them with the maseca. It looks easy/simple to make which I like. I also like how your video was short sweet and to the point. No extra fluff added to the video to make it last longer than necessary. Once again thank you Larry. Now I want some fritos. LOL

Thanks you 😊

I’ll have to try it with masa, I keep a bag for tortillas. Any of these are best in a bowl of chili. Great video!

Masa will be the best.

Thank you for comparing all 3. I have been trying to figure out which meal to use to make some. I will get some masa. This really helped! I may also try some of the cornmeal I get at the feed store.

My method is, when milling the dried corn kernels into flour, mix in some barcarbonate of soda or baking powder before making it into a dough for lighter & crispier results. Mix the dough with a little oil, then I roll out the dough wafer thin & I do what you did with the pizza cutter, or you can make corn poppadoms, or you can get star shaped dough cutters & have star shaped chips, then you can transfer to a zip lock bag with seasoning & carefully shake the bag to coat the chips with seasoning 😊👌 You can basically use any oil suitable for frying. Sesame seed oil is recommended for flavour. & Dust with black pepper.

Paying 3.99 for Fritos! So of course I've been craving them everyday. Thanks!

I,m come across the video tonight and I'm going to do that soon☑️

I'd be interested in substituting the water for milk, and frying them in peanut oil. Great video! Makes me want to try some of my own

Being a Frito lover and having masa and cornmeal and a deep fryer looks like an experiment. Maybe at night. It is 115 degrees in Phoenix in the daytime.

Very nice video. I was sure the Masa would be the best I live waaay off grid up above the snowline in the NE mountains of washington. Looking at BC Canada out my front window. Im 80 n wife is 70. We have hundreds of pounds of masa.. we do a lot of traditional mexican cooking. Like to make fritos and Dorito chips and all kinds of tortillas tamales etc. Enjoyed seeing your version. Nice job. Dandahermit😅

I don’t have to spend money 💰 on chips. You are my hero and keep up

Excellent Presentation Fellow FooDie!❤ThankS deeply for sharinG your Yummylicious receipe with me to EnJoY!✌🤓🙏😇🌹🌞🌹🐰🌹☕🍵☕🎋

Hi Larry. My Connecticut mouth is salivating. You always do entertaining and informative videos. I'm wondering if your homemade cornmeal had more natural sugars in it causing it to brown more?

They look good, Larry. May be the Fritos have spices in them that you don't know about which gives them their own unique flavor. Very enjoyable. Thanks.!!

Thanks grandpa

I stock up from dollar tree... yesterday I put them all back after realizing it has bioengineered ingredients. No thanks, I'll make my own. Thanks for showing us how.

Is that it im surprised it so easy ima try this out

Hi Larry, is the masa an harina pan?

Possibly some extra moisture in the home-made cornmeal which caused them to come out darker

Hi Larry. As you started, it took so long for the chips to brown that I wondered if your oil was hot enough. So, I’m guessing the reason your homeground cornmeal chips (which I wish I could have tasted!) came out darker because you fried those last, giving the oil time to heat up. Has anybody tried these in an air fryer?

Have you had trader joes "Corn Dippers" ? Wondering which one would be closest to that?

have a question... I bought a couple of sweet potatoes from the supermarket, left them with the regular potatoes.. sweet potatoes have sprouts all over them... should I plant them at this stage in the growing season, or just toss them?

The natural doesn't have chemicals and preservatives added to it.

What type of corn did you grow? The field or dent corn is probably used for most corn products. If you grow normal sweet corn they probably would not come out as well cooked as chips.

What if you mixed the Masa with your cornmeal your corn meal and then made them?

What if you used a metal sieve in the oil? Couldn't you put them all in/out more easily?

So it's about three hundred somthin degrees in there?

The last one is darker cause you didn't change the oil??

I bet they don't smell as bad as the store bought chip. I'll try this

You grew “Sweet corn”. Right? It always comes out darker when it’s fried.

I'm thinking that your home-grown corn turned out darker probably because it wasn't treated with lime first. Masa has been. I'm not sure about corn meal or corn flour.

Greetings Larry, when do I come and taste test? haha

Thanks for the video. Maybe I'm misunderstanding. I expected to find masa cornmeal for sale. I'm finding masa corn *flour* and cornmeal that's not called masa.

Hey Larry

I havn't made mine yet but I am going to put some shredded sharp cheddar cheese mixed in with the corn and see what happens

does the corn meal need to be selfrising or no. Thanks in advance and may THE LORD JESUS bless you and yours

Maybe darker because of sugar Content in your corn.

Can i eat? 😁

Try 50/50 cornmeal/flour mixture. Get creative. Spice it up. Some of the water can be replaced with hot sauce.

Instead of water use corn oil...oops you are
