Instructions
Step 1
First we start by measure the masa harina, place in a bowl with the salt.
Step 2
Add half the amount of water, mix with a fork, until it is cool enough to handle by hand.
Step 3
Knead by hand, and then slowly add the rest of the water until a firm ball of dough is created.
Step 4
Cover, and allow to rest for 5minutes to come together. It doesn’t contain gluten to the resting is minimal and can be skipped.
Step 5
Divide into 30 to 40g balls, take a ball & flatten by: pressing with cast iron tortilla press, or rolling pin. The reason I love using the tortilla press is because you can get so much more for your time.
Step 6
Preheat your skillet, I usually go for a cast iron or stainless steel skillet. Turn the heat down to medium and cook your tortilla on one side for few minutes. And then flip and cook on the other side.
When you flip you will see the tortilla puff up, I love how fun tortilla can be.
Step 7
To ensure soft tortillas, wrap them in a towel and place in torilla warmer or wide pot.
