What Can I Use In Place Of Corn Tortillas?
- Place a sheet of non-stick plastic on the bottom of a tortilla press.
- Gently peel the tortilla off of the plastic and, using your fingertips, place it on the hot griddle or comal.
- Repeat the pressing and cooking process with the remaining masa balls until all tortillas are done.
The following equipment is also recommended:
- Non-stick skillet, comal or griddle: You will need some sort of non-stick pan to cook the tortillas, so that they do not stick while cooking.
- Tortilla press (optional): I’m always hesitant here to recommend single-use kitchen gadgets.
- Tortilla warmer (optional): Also optional but quite handy for keeping your tortillas soft and warm.
