Where to Find Fine-Ground Cornmeal for Zaletti

Question

I am getting ready to make a Mile Street recipe for zaletti.  It calls for "fine ground cornmeal" with comments not to use coarse nor polenta.  I can only find "medium ground cornmeal" and also corn flour.  I am thinking I will take the medium ground cornmeal and whirl it up in the food processor.
Anyone else have a problem finding fine ground cornmeal to this recipe?

Hi Chris -
If you check out your supermarket's international food aisle, you may find Goya brand finely ground cornmeal or another brand like Caribbean Rhythms or Iberia.
If you do decide to use the food processor, just make sure not to overprocess it. I would use the pulse setting and process a little at a time to make sure it doesn't go too far.
