Oooohh...my....GAWD!! This is the tortilla of my dreams! I can't tell you how many tortillas and recipes we've tried...all in the hopes of finding/creating the very properties this one has. Do not let yourself or anyone else minimize the sheer brilliance of your recipe and the technique you've just created. It may seem incredibly simple now... but that's only because an absolute genius finally cracked the code and translated it into a comprehensable form. Finally...we are a giant leap forward in our quest for Burrito Nirvana. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!!

What it is the recipe for the mix that you use to separate the tortillas?

Thanks 🙏
As a chef I am extremely impressed by this recipe
Yep, it works. I just made some smaller ones for flautas. They came out gossamer thin. I put one on the printed recipe and I could see text through the tortilla. Thank you for such a good recipe. ☺ -Dennis
As a true Sonora Latina I’m excited to make this 😁 idk about the blow torch but I love ❤Sonora tortillas, still reminds me of my Nana who passed away in Mexico. Good job 👏🏻
Sonoran Flour is truly amazing. It is considered an ancient grain and the first grain that was introduced in the US. Hayden Flour Mills has a great selection. I use butter, anyone can eat my tortillas.
I was skeptical but I literally just ate my words. Hahahah. Truly genius. My husband is in amazement. I am gloriously grateful thank you!!
You've incorporate science and art. That's a passionate cook's bonus. Your technical descriptions were offset by your real time demonstrations. Truly enjoyable video. Thank you for creating and sharing.
My grandmother is from Sonora and passed two years ago, I was able to get her tortilla recipe before she died. Last night I tried making them and they kept coming out hard and dry. I used her recipe with your technique and it worked! Thanks

Would it be possible for you to post her recipe? I'm from Sonora and it's hard to find original tortilla recipes from there. Thank you in advance.

Also watch "views on the road' authentic tortillas from scratch. I used Hayden Mills White Sonora Wheat AP flour and John Morrell lard (refrigerted). I followed along with the video during lard incorporation (time) and used her recipe and techniques. The dough turned out soft as silk. Had a hard time making it fit the comal because it stretched so well.

Your grandmother must have been an expert at stretching them out the Sonoran style with her hand and arm.

@@booberries833 it's almost the same recipe, the only difference is the fat. Most people in Sonora use vegetable shortening because it's affordable. You might see a few recipes with lard, but traditionally it's done with crisco

How is this the first time I've heard of this? I've watched countless videos that apparently taught me to make two tortillas together, then I've struggled with them being too thick to wrap burritos. I've WASTED SO MUCH FLOUR AND TIME! And when i make them, they bubble up like balloons. I always assumed that was bad. But that's perfect!? This is an absolute game changer. Thank you!!!
I have a lot of tortilla experience. I've always wanted to make Sonoran style but could never get it right, by that I mean thin enough. Your creative technique took a few times to get it dialed in, but now I make truly amazing tortillas. Thank you for this video!
In North China we use same tips to make a similar tortilla called Chun Bing (春餅) to welcome Spring coming in Chinese calendar. It is almost as thin as the one in the video. We usually put some fried vegetables and some other small amount of dishes on tortilla and roll it like a burrito😊
I grew up eating these as a kid in Hermosillo and I am THRILLED to try this, thank you so much for sharing
Wow like how peking duck wrappers and dumpling wrappers are made. Amazing!

Brian’s Tortillas. Best tortillas in the world. My world. I live in Wisconsin now and need to load up with another gross (144)
These came out exactly as described. They really do peel apart easily and are perfectly chewy and delicious. Definitely my new go to recipe for tortillas. Thanks for the excellent step-by-step instructions. I used ghee for the fat in the recipe and they turned out great.
I had to watch this video a few times to comprehend all the effort gone into this killer recipe. I was confused because the complete recipe was not mentioned. I was like How much flour, no salt? Then I went to her website for the complete recipe. All makes sense now lol. Thank you thank you
This was the best tortilla I’ve ever had. Absolutely incredible. Thank you.
10:04 😂😂😂 that part made my day
That tortilla is a work of art! I love it, I’m going to try it. Thank you for this video 💐
Are you a scientist? You have definitely cracked the code. I love your method and explanation. Thank you!
I love that you left in "bloopers" in the actual video rather than editing it out. It feels raw and real, and I can relate personally to it ❤ Love your content! I have your book and I'm working my way through it!
This is the only way I make tortillas! Thank you for such a game-changing technique! I use it for making egg roll/wonton wrappers, too!
I really enjoy the problem-solving approach to all your videos. It feels like I am figuring it out with you. Thank you so much.
Omg. Fantastic! I used my gas stove's open flame in place of the blowtorch with good results. The separation of the two tortillas was even easier than expected.
Daaaammmn! Now I have been on this youtube from one channel to the next but I have never seen such a delicious piece of yum yum in my life. Looks sooooo absolutely edible. I would eat that for hours and hours and hours OH MY GOODNESS!!!!
The key to Sonoran thin tortillas is hydration (the dough is slightly sticky) ,taste (by lard and salt) and soft and pliable by kneading thoroughly. Plus the skillet or comal has to be very hot because if its too cold they will crisp or not puff and if too hot they will crisp and burn. (I use just under med heat -(pre heat) this example is unique but they are made very easily in the traditional way.
I love your kitchen! It’s so organic!
Just made these using your technique and they turned out perfect. Thank you so much for sharing.
So rolling two tortillas together keeps them from tearing and the roux helps them separate. Freaking brilliant!
This women is a genius.. I’m obsessed!!
By far one of the best tortilla videos out there !! Thank you
Seriously kudos! Thanks for your work and thought into this.
This looks like magic. Thanks you Mandy Lee. I will gives these a try.
Looks fantastic! Thank you!
these tortillas are so beautiful omg
Best recipe on earth. I personally prefer eating it without splitting the layers. Its super flaky that way. Love it!!!
Absolutely BRILLIANT! I just started making not so thin flour tortillas and I'm looking forward to trying this! I also loved the info and science of working with flour. Mahalo and Aloha from Maui!
Looks like you have the perfect method! Oh I am so going to try this! Thanks!!
So basically a dosti roti? The Indians mastered this method. Love the video.
well done lady lee. fantastic technique. its amazing how much you learn from cross-over cultures...like the yemenese multilayer bread, french croissant, etc... brilliant application.
Thank you so much!!! This is the tortilla recipe that I have been searching for years now!!! BTW, I love all of your videos.

This is truly genius
Damn. I love your videos, Mandy. Always so thoughtful and detailed with amazing results. I will try this next time!
Fabulous ❤️ Thank you!!!
Browning the flour is a clever idea! It gives the insides more of a toasted flavor.
Beautifully thorough. Thank you.
This phyllo like tortilla is so great, I can use it For many more recipes like Turkish börek or savory pastry with spinach etc by usıng 10 or 15 of them. You can even make samosas. Great. Thank you👍👏
Love this!
This was stupidly easy, and the best results I have ever gotten. I'm mexican, but honestly we suck at giving instructions for cooking, that's why I was looking for a recipe for thin tortillas in english. The four tortillas I did with this technique are the equivalet to one of the ones I did yesterday. How this have not going viral? I'm going to buy your book asap.
brilliant technique thank you for the tips!
Kitchen science to my Nana's tortillas. She couldn't make them fast enough! Warm tortilla with butter😋
Thank you this is recipe I been looking for after being trying so many on internet
This is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing! So really nice of you to help us! Thank you again! ❤❤❤❤
I do a 30 minute autolyse, then add fat, then knead. This gives me chewy. Glad to hear someone else touch on this. For flakier tortillas, don't do this, add the fat at the start and only knead lightly.
Incredible recipe!
Look’s amazing!!
Very Impressive.. plan on trying this thanks!
Wow, amazing
Beautiful tortillas!
