Recipe type: Bread
Cuisine: Mexican
Serves: 2-4
Ingredients
  • 1 cup masa
  • ⅔ cups cold water
  • ⅛ tsp salt
  • optional flavorings: chilly powder, cumin, cayenne, etc
  • (Instructions for increasing or decreasing for more/less servings can be found on most packages of masa flour)
Instructions
  1. Mix the masa with the salt and optional seasonings, then the water, blending to form a dough. Let dough rest, covered for about 20 minutes. When ready, form into 1½ inch balls, one at a time placing in tortilla press (sandwiched betwixed wax paper) and press flat. Carefully peel wax paper off of tortilla, not the other way around. If you accidentally break off a chunk of tortilla, just reform the ball and squish again.
  2. Heat two minutes per side in a hot pan on medium heat or until cooked through and slightly puffing off of pan. Place in a tortilla warmer or lidded pan (off heat) until ready to use. Tortillas can also be frozen.
