Been making flour tortillas with the press. Fresh tortillas are amazing. Mine came with a bunch of wax papers to put between the press, but I discovered they did more harm then good. After several attempts I settled on a yeast based flour tortilla recipe which I spice up with mild chili powder. Press to shape and then roll it out to size. 60 second later in a piping hot pan and you have a tortilla. Those wax papers come in handy to separate them in the freezer.
My press came pre seasoned, but I think it can do with a few more layers. What are your tips for making tortillas?
I tried those and they’re awesome. The trick I learned is to use very hot water (with baking powder) to prevent gluten from forming. When using yeast the trick is to let the dough rest so the gluten relax. Nice thing about yeast based dough is that you can keep it in the fridge. It’s also more forgiving time wise.
