Well, I saw the package of tortilla mix at the mexican market the other day, so i decided to give it a try. It would totally save us money, so why not? How hard can it be?
I followed the directions that were on the back of the bag. Easy!
So i made the dough, it was nice and moist. I separated them into little balls and then the directions told me to put them into a tortilla press! Whats a tortilla press? I looked it up online and figured it out. Then i had to get creative…what can i use to press these balls of dough into tortillas…….Aha! I figured out that i would press the balls in between two plates covered in plastic wrap…
They sure looked good! They were really round and a nice thickness too…Now i had to peel them off the plastic wrap (without ripping it) and place into the hot pan.
All of my tortillas ripped in one place or another…but i cooked them anyway…
They turned out pretty good. I did have to add more salt then the directions. They tasted pretty good too, with a little butter…yummy…
You are aloud to laugh at the funny shapes of my homemade tortillas..
