How to Make Atole
Atole is a drink made with masa harina (ground maize). In Mexico it is the traditional accompaniment to tamales, but it can also be a filling winter breakfast-one you can enjoy in the car on the way to work.
Things You'll Need
- 1/4 cup masa harina (see Resources, below)
- 1 pinch salt

Put the masa harina and salt in a small saucepan and slowly whisk in the water, making sure to eliminate all lumps.

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.

Divide evenly between 4 tall, insulated mugs. Thin with the warmed milk and season to taste with honey.
