I’d been planning to make these for forever, and an emergency shortage of packaged tortillas (egads!) pushed me to action.
This tortilla press was a wedding gift, lo these many years ago, but I’d only ever used it to make white flour tortillas.
Turns out making corn tortillas is even easier and mega fun. Like magic! I used the recipe from America’s Test Kitchen, found here. I didn’t involve the kids this time, but it would be a perfect kid cooking project, with all the satisfaction of a Play-Doh factory.
Very close to meeting my writing goals for the season (which ends when the kids get out of school). Crossing fingers!

New-to-me podcast: Extra Hot Great. If you like roundtable discussions of pop culture, a la Pop Culture Happy Hour, you might enjoy this one, which is all about television. Somehow I can’t get enough of smart tv analysis.
Have a great weekend!
