Ingredients
- 1 cup Masa harina (corn flour)
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 small amount Non-stick spray
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the masa harina and salt.
Step 2
Gradually add the warm water to the dry ingredients, mixing with a spoon or your hands until a soft dough forms. The dough should feel like playdough—soft but not sticky. Add a teaspoon of water if too dry or a sprinkle of masa harina if too wet.
Step 3
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each one into a ball. Cover the balls with a damp towel to prevent them from drying out while you work.
Step 4
Place one dough ball between two sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Use a tortilla press or a rolling pin to flatten the dough into a thin, round tortilla, about 6 inches in diameter.
Step 5
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and lightly spray with non-stick spray. Once hot, carefully remove the plastic wrap from a tortilla and place it on the skillet.
Step 6
Cook the tortilla for about 30 seconds on the first side, then flip and cook for another 30-45 seconds on the second side. Finally, flip once more and cook for an additional 10 seconds. The tortilla should puff slightly and develop light brown spots.
Step 7
Remove the cooked tortilla from the skillet and wrap it in a clean kitchen towel to keep it warm and pliable. Repeat the process with the remaining balls of dough.
Step 8
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave before serving.
