This was so helpful. Thank you so much. A good 35 years ago I arrived from the Southern USA to Los Angeles as a very young adult. The old, old lady next door, who didn't speak a word of English, would bring me a plate of homemade tortillas every morning. I cried the day that I had to move from there, because I knew I'd miss the warmth and the love she showed me every morning. Six months later I came by with flowers and a homemade cake and was told by her great-granddaughter that she had passed about a month after I had moved. I didn't eat corn tortillas for several years after that - the memories would come flooding back and it was just too painful. Now, all these years later, I am going to make my own homemade corn tortillas. _Miss you, Rosa. Thanks for the memories._

WOW, where do I start? I am 62 years old born and raised in CA my whole life, so I know and am used to authentic Mexican food. We have been living in Japan for that last 6 years, and of course there is no real Mexican food and the only corn tortillas are frozen (suck big time). My wife did some digging around and came across a recipe for the corn tortillas and then I found this video. Bought all the stuff and a new pan. Holly crap even our daughter who has been living in Texas for 3 years was amazed as well me. These are the best I have ever had and we are going to throw a taco party for our Japanese friends and blow them away. Thanks and thanks.

I worked at Azteca, the place that makes this corn flower. After handling it, I would come home at night with pockets full of this product because it's flower and gets everywhere. I learned quickly about this staple and used it to my advantage. To this day I still buy it and the generic Walmart brand is the exact same as the MASECA the only difference is the wrapper. Everything about this video is correct and it can be a challenge getting your ratio of warm water correct but after practice it becomes second nature. Save money and get yourself fed cheaply with this product. Masa saved my life, kept me fed, and saved me money ever since discovering it.

This is one of the best instructional videos I've ever seen on the internet. I am not exaggerating at all. The information was presented in a way that was mildly entertaining, but most importantly, with clear explanation of, not just 'what' to do, but the 'why' to go with the 'how'. That 'why' can be the most important part of teaching as it clarifies the more basic parts of the lesson. I enjoyed that this was done with appropriate intelligence and authority rather than putting on a gimmicky show. And then, the "what if" segment at the end - in cooking, things go wrong all the time. The presenter has clearly experienced the problems and either worked out or learned the solutions to resolve those issues. The last thing I'll say is one of my most aggravating pet-peves in videos; faceless computer voiced narrations. Here, the presenter is on camera and actually human-voicing the video! 🙂 Many do this, but so many do not. The presenter is clearly here to instruct, and make some money doing it. As opposed to so many internet presenters who are clearly just posting something / anything whether they are knowledgeable about the subject or not, for the sole purpose of cashing in on the ad money of clicks, likes, subs, etc... To me, that makes all the difference. I've been making New Mexican food for a very long time. But I'm always looking for new ideas or techniques to do better. This presentation actually did give me some added info that will be useful and appreciated. So simply, thank you.

A little tip for everyone, don't give up. Making tortillas is a skill developed over time, you need to get used to the texture, look and feel. Also you need to understand how your pan or comal heats so don't worry if they don't turn out good at first.

Then she moved to WA and she was confident she was gonna find real tortillas near her new home, but soon came to the realization that not all mexican stores are made equal.

Had an amazing breakfast with my tortillas, scrambled eggs, and a nice tomato/onion/jalapeno/lime pico I whipped up. Bomb tacos. The time you put into laying out exactly what to look for in a proper masa dough is SUPER on point! You weren't kidding about the fresh playdough. It really brought me back to childhood with that. Only thing I didn't do was buy a press. I used a small glass casserole dish as my press, which worked well because I could see them spread as I pushed. Once again, thanks dude. I don't think I'll ever buy another pack of them again, not when they're this easy!

Hi, just a comment about how hard it is to press a certain thickness or thinness. The tortilla is aproximately the thickness of a quarter. So I decided to put the quarter near the outside edge and dough ball in the middle. Then when you press down, the press will stop when it reaches the quarter. Perfect thickness every time. Love your video.

I personally recommend flipping 2 times. After putting the tortilla on the heat, wait until it starts to slightly change color on the top side, then flip and wait a few seconds until a bit of brown bits appear on the bottom side, then flip again. It will almost always puff up at this point, and you just have to wait a few seconds for this side to also get some bits of brown and done.

Excellent video. I won't go into how much Maseca I have wasted trying to make corn tortillas that we ate when I was growing up, but it is an embassassing amount.

Quick tip for the Tortilla press: If you have a round oven dish made from glass, preferrably with two handles on two sides, use that as an improvised tortilla press. Works like a charm plus you can see the size of your tortilla.
