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!!

@@margaritariveria6940never heard of sweet bean tamales but that sounds really good! 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 😮🫔

@sunshinelifeco Жыл бұрын
You have to account for the climate you live in or at sea level/elevation level. It should feel firm in your hand but still pliable almost like play dough. If it is to wet and still sticks to your fingers/bowl even a little just add a sprinkle of masa at at a time then mix. Once it has that play dough consistency you will be ready to have the dough rest for 30 min before separating.

She called them Ranitas ( little frogs) the water was from a bowl she had next to the tortilla press to wash her hands after every tortilla, she made. I did the same thing for my kids and now my grandsons . You remind me so much of my grandma. Thank you for the great memories.
