Tortillas

I tried my hand at making homemade tortillas, and holy cow! I don't think I'll ever go back to store bought tortillas again haha. 

In true Emily fashion, I had two recipes I tried at the same time. 

Recipe number two was my second favorite. However, I read the instructions wrong and used baking soda instead of baking powder, so I will need to give this recipe a try again. I found that this recipe rolled out very thinly, but in cooking them, they ended up flatter and more like a pita.

Recipe number one involved fewer ingredients, was easy to roll out, and cooked well. Great texture!


I cooked them in a dry cast iron skillet as instructed, and they turned out great. The instructions said to cook them for 20 seconds to 1 minute per side, and flip when there are brown dots starting to appear.
