Tortilla 'flour'

My South American DIL is really missing tortillas but hasn't been able to find any of the particular 'flour' used. Do any of you make authentic tortilla and if so where do you source the ingredients! Thanks for any info- trust me it will be gratefully received.

It is called "masa" and is available in some of the more expensive supermarkets. I have seen it in New World once.
