Any training – physical, mental, or spiritual – is characterized at first by failure. We fail more often than we succeed. But if we persevere, we gradually see progress till we are succeeding more often than failing. This is true as we seek to put to death particular sins. At first it seems we are making no progress, so we become discouraged and think, What’s the use?! I can never overcome that sin. That is exactly what Satan wants us to think. It is at this point that we must exercise perseverance. We keep wanting instant success, but holiness doesn’t come that way. Our sinful habits are not broken overnight. Follow-through is required to make any change in our lives, and follow-through requires perseverance.

INGREDIENTS

1	c	Warm (100 F.) water
1		Egg yolk
1	ts	Salt
3/4	c	Masa harina, or as needed
		Corn oil for frying

INSTRUCTIONS

In a mixing bowl, whisk the water, egg yolk and salt together until
thoroughly mixed. Gradually add enough masa to make a soft dough, just
stiff enough not to stick to your fingers.
In a heavy skillet, deep fryer, or elec. skillet preheat oil to at least
375    F.
Fit a cookie press or pastry bag with the plate or tip designed to make a
flat, ribbed shape and fill it with the masa dough. Press out into the hot
oil a few short lengths of dough, enough to cover only about half the
surface of the oil.  Fry ribbons turning once, just until golden brown.
Remove with slotted spoon or skimmer and drain on paper towels.
Serve chips while still warm, or cool completely and store airtight. To
serve chips after storage, freshen briefly in warm oven. Will keep for up
to one week.
Masa flour, made from specially processed corn, has a taste all its own.
Cornmeal CANNOT be substituted. Chips can be made in double or triple
batches and are so quick they can be made on very short notice.
