Advanced Tip

You can use store-bought tortillas or make your own. Homemade Tortilla Recipe:

Ingredients:

• All-purpose flour: 400g
• Dry yeast: 6g
• Salt: 4g
• Corn oil or olive oil: 18g
• Water: 240g

Steps:

1. Mix all ingredients into a smooth dough. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for 10 minutes.
2. Divide into small balls of about 50g each. Flatten into small discs and let them rest again for 10 minutes.
3. Dust your surface with flour to prevent sticking. Roll each disc into a thin round about 8 inches in diameter.
4. Heat a dry pan over medium heat. Place the tortilla in the pan and reduce to low heat. In about 40 seconds, small bubbles will appear — flip it quickly. After about 10 more seconds, it’s ready.
5. Stack the tortillas and wrap them with plastic wrap to keep them from drying out.
6. Freeze any leftovers for later use.
