Corn Tortillas // Easy Step by Step ❤️

If you love tacos, enchiladas, tostadas, chalupas and more, then you know that they are made with corn tortillas. I love freshly made corn tortillas, and I make them often in my house, they are delicious and very easy to make if you have the right technique. You will need 3 ingredients, and I’m going to show you how to make them step by step so you can enjoy them too. I hope you give this recipe a try. ❤️

    I made your flour tortilla recipe, using your video and technique today and tonight we ate a wonderful meal based on those tortillas. Your instructions are excellent! You are a terrific teacher and you helped this previously failed tortilla-maker learn a new skill. Thank you! Your videos are great and much appreciated.

    Dear Rachel, my confession is I've lived in Arizona for 30 years and I've never mastered the art of tortilla making. Both my flour and corn tortillas resembled something more suited to a construction site instead of the dinner table. Until now. I purchased a tortilla press and played your channel in the kitchen as I made corn tortillas. When they actually puffed up in the pan and turned out soft and muy delicioso I was so happy!!! Next time I'm trying flour tortillas. Thank you for sharing your techniques and knowledge!!

Tamales canarios use golden raisins as well as pecans, pineapple chunks, rice four instead of masa harina, and no lard. So many different varieties of tamales that most people outside of Mexico has ever heard of 😮🫔

I love making them as I inherited Johnny's mama corn tortilla press. It's also the one I sue to make your gorditas de azucar recipe. I think the tortillas taste even better as her mark is on that tortillera. Wishing you and your Ron a most perfect rest of your week as spring is definitely in the air.

I think cooking them longer than this version of 25, 30, then 10ish seconds was too long, but wasn’t smart enough on my own to do it this way. Thanks again, for all of your wonderful videos.
