making tortillas
Posted on January 16th, 2011
While we were in west Texas over the holidays, I filmed my sister making tortillas. She makes them so quickly and easily!
Here’s a short video of her rolling them out and cooking them on the comal (cast iron skillet). While she cooks, my mom and I chat about tortilla superstitions and rules.

Oh, thanks so much! Making tortillas is next on my cooking list to try and it’s great to see them being cooked before I attempt it! We seem to be on the same food wave-length lately!
You’re welcome! Mine rarely come out perfectly round, and sometimes I get the texture wrong, but they’re always still good.
