Uploaded by TheCasualGardener on Sep 28, 2011
On our eco adventure, we learn how to make corn tortillas with Margarita, our favorite tortilla cook, using regional ingredients found in Mexico and North America.
RECIPE FOR CORN TORTILLAS
2 Cups Masa Harina
1 to 1/2 Cups Water
To make around 16 tortillas, place 2 cups of masa flour in a bowl.
Add 1 1/2 to 2 cups of very warm water to the masa flour (according to the directions on the package).
Mix in and rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
Knead the dough for several minutes, do not over knead.
Shape masa dough into a ball the size of a golf ball.
Pat balls flat with hands or utilize wax paper and a tortilla press. (See video as reference.)
Cook on hot pan until lightly toasted and air pockets are forming.
Serve hot!
