Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons sugar
- ½ cup corn meal
- ¼ teaspoon salt

Notes
- The harina de maiz will be runny but this is done purposely because the harina cools quickly and it thickens while cooling.
- If the harina gets too dry or too thick for your liking, all you have to do is add a little more warm milk to thin it out.
- You can use any type of sweetener like honey, brown sugar, or condensed milk.
- You can use any flavoring you like. Popular ones are vanilla and almond.
- Use almond, oat, or coconut milk.
