[@oneanddonetzone3673]

I skip the fluff the egg whites. I’ve been doing this for years I’m surprised more people haven’t cut onto it however I don’t take the yolks out because that’s where truly all of your nutrition is. If you’re going to eat an egg eat the yolk that’s where the love of God comes from! Nice video

[@CookwithMel1]

Thanks so much...great tips too! For everyone's convenience I have also have the amount of eggs in grams so they can use whole eggs if they like. ❤️❤️❤️

[@Therradican]

Egg yolk seems to exacerbate Rhumatoid Arthritis. Cheese is not good as well for RA. They are inflammatory food. If you have been doing these for years and no effect on you, good for you.

[@RickyT15]

generally i would go 1 full - 2 whites. Yolk is where all the fats and vitamins are but its also stacked with calories that add up quickly. There is 3-4 times more calories in a yolk than the white.

[@CookwithMel1]

I'm just here with my fake popcorn to learn from ya'll 😊

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

@@RickyT15 it’s not about cals It’s about carbs Eggwhites allow us to skip the grains but still have “normal” meals For goodness sakes, don’t throw out the yolks! Melt them into ur coffee or make keto ice cream, throw them in a pan of eggs ur scrambling, and wrap up in the egg-cheese wrap 😁 Some carnivore eat them slightly warmed in a bowl, with their meat or to dip the meat into. Kind of like a soft boiled egg idea. Raw yolks have more nutrition preserved. Whites do better cooked.

[@margaritalado2203]

Hello I Made them today...they aré fantastic !!!!! The Best in keto tortillas for me! I use cotija cheese instead of parmesan. It Is cheaper AND worked beatifuly. I am in México. Thanks a lot for the recipe.

[@CookwithMel1]

Woe I didn't know about this cheese...thanks so much. I'm so happy you enjoyed it ❤️

[@piratejenny23]

I would like to add that you can put the tortilla in the pan with the parchment paper on the BOTTOM. Cook the first side, flip them over together, and the paper will peel right off when the tortilla is ready. This method can also be used for many other delicate foods like breads, pancakes, eggs, fritters, fried cheese, etc, or even if your pan isn't nonstick

[@CookwithMel1]

Great tip....thanks!

Does it still brown that way?

[@bpare]

Seeing this comment 1 year later, and I had issues with the dough just completely adhering to the parchment paper. I had thought to maybe to just cook the one side with the parchment paper first, but I wasn't sure. Nice to see it is mentioned. Could you also maybe refridgerate the dough after mixing?

[@dizziechef9502]

Does the first side put down with parchment paper become browned ?

Made these today ………. first one was a disaster 😵‍💫, used my tortilla press and covered it with baking paper (not a good idea) the mix stuck and I had to scrape it off. I flattened it out and still cooked it, tasted great just looked nothing like a tortilla 😂. Then I covered the press with cling wrap …….. what a genius I am 🤣😂🤣, this worked a treat and ended up with tortillas that actually looked like yours. So happy, so now we can have pulled pork with salad in wraps for dinner ….. yay!!! Thank you Mel for a great recipe……🥰🥰🤩

[@CookwithMel1]

[@JanineCeleste]

I saw your recipe last year and only just now made them. Boy, have I been missing out! They taste like giant Cheez-It Soft taco shells. The only issue I have is that they are high calorie. 311 calories for 2 small taco shells. If you can work your magic and make these lower calorie, I would be very interested. These are the absolute best tasting Keto tortillas I've ever tried, and I have tried a lot. UPDATE: I completely forgot until just now that I made 6 instead of 5, which resulted in smaller tortillas, about the size of corn tortillas, and 258 calories for 2, so that's not too bad. And they are so filling and so tasty!! Love, love, love these!

[@CookwithMel1]

Oh wow thanks so much Janine. To be honest the caloric count is dependant on the cheese you use...and mine was high. I wonder if you worked out your own macros using your brands if it would lower it. I can only manage one tortilla, it's so filling.

[@JanineCeleste]

@@CookwithMel1Hi Mel, Yes, I swapped your ingredients for mine, but the calories were still about the same. However, I completely forgot until just now that I made 6 instead of 5, which resulted in smaller tortillas, about the size of corn tortillas, and 258 calories for 2, so that's not too bad. I wasn't sure how filling they would be. That said, I will try the size you recommend and see if just one would hold all of my fillings. I like to add avocado, and cabbage, on top of the normal taco fillings, so a larger tortilla, or 2 small ones is usually what works for me. But these ARE filling!! So awesome!!

[@CookwithMel1]

Yay...that's just awesome. It's good we could figure it out ❤️❤️❤️

[@CookwithMel1]

I'm so pleased that you shared how much gelatine you used leaving out the x.gum. Alot of people saying flipping the tortilla into the pan with the baking paper works really well. I mean only remove the top layer of baking paper, place into the pan with the baking paper then when the one side is cooked it's much easier to flip and remove the 2nd layer of babking paper. Hope that helps 😊

180g grated cheese of choice 1tsp baking powder 2tsp xanthan gum 1 tsp gelatin (Mix thoroughly and get a separate bowl for wet ingredients!) wet ingredients: 2 egg whites pinch of cream of tartar (then beat until stiff peaks) (note: if you use egg whites from a carton, use 1/4 cup) Instructions: mix fluffy egg whites into dry mixture a little at a time. once mixed, form into balls weighing approx. 53g. each. roll out each ball in between 2 sheets of parchment paper (without the parchment paper covering the top and bottom of dough ball it will get stuck to rolling pin or counter) use a knife or the lid of a small part to trim the edges for a more round tortilla place tortillas into a pan at medium heat and cook until both sides are covered in golden brown spots. NOTES: you can also make the tortilla dough with no baking power and egg whites, but tortillas may be slightly less fluffy. For large tortillas make dough balls approx. 84g To store: wrap tortillas in parchment paper then in cling wrap. place in freezer and take out when ready to use. microwave in 10 second intervals to heat. DOUGH can ALSO be used to make a PIZZA CRUST

Hello Joe. When cool they do become stiff. Did you test them when warm? If you still have them you could warm them by reheating in the frying pan then shape them to how you like. When cooled they take the shape you created them in. Please let me know if they were crispy even warm because all the above would not be helpful.

Hi Mel, thankyou so much for all your beautiful recipies :) this one looks amazing and I cant wait to try it. I'm not much of a cook and often have kitchen disasters so please forgive me for asking but is there any way these could be made with coconut flour instead of the cheese? my wife is allergic to both cheese & nuts :( what quantities would you use?

[@CookwithMel1]

Hi Jim...thank you. Actually...can your wife have chia seeds? I have an easy tortilla recipe using that.

[@Books_by_Jim]

@@CookwithMel1 Thanks so much Mel for getting back to me. Sadly Chia seeds are also high in Oxalates which she also has a problem with.. lol it's a bit of a puzzel!

[@CookwithMel1]

Ohhh! If you need oxalate free you can use ground Basil seeds in place of the chia. My oxalate free friends say it's a perfect substitute

[@Books_by_Jim]

@@CookwithMel1 WOW you wonderful lady! thanks so much! I'll give this a try!

[@CookwithMel1]

@Books_by_Jim you're welcome. Please use this recipe its only 3 ingredients...and replace the chia seeds with basil kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIKUpaOebKh8hKcsi=cEDXpxfkYMQuUslX

Hello JM. I hope you're enjoying all the recipes. We are currently doing quick mug recipes and others. Are you still on the diet? If you need any assistance please let me know 😊

[@charleshazen7061]

This looks great. I haven’t tried it yet but am curious: can I leave out the xanthum gum? Thanks!

[@CookwithMel1]

Thanks so much Charles...the xanthan gum is a binder so your dough can come together so you will need to substitute it with either guar gum or another substitute 😊😊😊

[@charleshazen7061]

Thanks for the reply

You're welcome 😊

[@grannysquareswagonwheels2604]

Have you tried them with taco meat? So many keto taco shells turn to mush as soon as the hot meat hits them. These really look the best of any I've seen and I do have the ingredients so I definitely want to try them. Thank you.

[@CookwithMel1]

Hello hope you're well. No I have not filled them honestly...I was so focussed on all the other factors but here's the thing. If you fill with cold meat it will hold its shape. If you fill with warm meat they will soften a little, and I think only at the bottom because I would normally add salad on top of the meat. Hope that helps.

[@KarenEstes1295]

Put the salad + cheese in the bottom then add the meat

[@CookwithMel1]

@@KarenEstes1295 true!!

[@HanniZenu]

Hi. Is adding the binding agents (gum and gelatin) necessary or can I make the tortilla without it using just the cheese, baking powder and eggs? Thanks. 😊

[@CookwithMel1]

Hi 👋 I found that the dough just crumbles and doesn't come together without it. You can try substitutes for the binders of you wish though 😊

Your tortillas look great. I tried it and it came out just as yours but very salty. What can I do about the salt?

[@CookwithMel1]

I'm so happy it turned out the same as mine. Thank you for trying it out. Oh the salty taste will definitely be from the cheese you used. You could finely grate a block of parmesan. I've heard that Kraft grated parmesan works really well 😊😊😊

[@jennyelenihealth]

Hello!! Would it work without Xanthan gum and cream if tartar? Also, I have fresh gelatin (from a very gelatinous bone broth). Thanks!

[@CookwithMel1]

Hello Jenny. It will be fine without the cream of Tartar, just whip to stiff peaks. I always say add a little more Gelatin if you don't have xanthan gum. These two ingredients hold the dough together. I hope you enjoy it ❤️

Hi Mel, new subscriber here. This recipe looks so incredibly good and promising (not to mention easy), thank you for sharing. I have a question: Could I substitute the xanthan gum for powdered psyllium husk? Do you think it could work?

[@CookwithMel1]

Welcome to the channel and thanks for the support. I think it could work but I haven't tried it to be honest. Just a tip, when getting your cheese do go for low sodium. I really they turn out great and you enjoy them.

[@ruthlopez288]

Hi Mel! I can’t wait to make these tortillas. Can I use Kraft’s grated Parmesan cheese?

[@claudia5908]

Thank you for this, Mel. I’m going to try it. Questions: what can I use instead of baking powder & xanthan gum? I am not vegan. It’s just baking powder has corn. And I rather not buy xanthan gum if I can use something like flaxseed. Do you think the taste will be bad with substitutes?

[@countrygal3688]

google diy baking powder. I think it is baking soda and cream of tartar mixed. Or you can find a brand that doesn't have corn starch.

[@CookwithMel1]

Hi Claudia and you're welcome. I would just leave the Baking Powder out completely and use 2 tsp of Gelatin Powder instead. I would also whip the egg whites so your tortilla could be a little fluffy. No need to add flaxseed I'm really not sure if it will spoil it 😊😍

I usually buy the low carb tortilla wraps, but they are loaded with weird ingredients. 😕 I will be using this recipe from now on, such a healthier alternative. 👌

[@CookwithMel1]

So true...thanks so much

[@darkpatches]

The egg white tortillas you can buy, aside from being expensive, were just a little weird. Certainly doable and it was nice to make some fajitas with them. But the rubberiness was nothing like a tortilla. Looking forward to trying Mel's. Maybe worth pointing out that two corn tortillas only have 21g carbs (19 net). That's enough for me and 19g is well below my threshold for staying in keto as long as the rest of the day is in check. Still hoping these low-carb versions make the cut.

[@CookwithMel1]

@@darkpatches hello. I would be very interested to know what you think of these tortillas compared to store bought. Of course I hope you enjoy it though.
