Master Corn Tortillas: How to achieve the perfect puff every time

[@Scotty1963AZUSA]

My wife and I think you two are adorable! And those tortillas look so delicious. You've inspired her to make them this way with a tortilla press. Yay for me!!

[@VillaCocina]

Awesome! thanks for the kind comment. Let me know how they turn out.

[@rodriguez30720]

My grandmother showed me how to make them and she said the hotter the water the better thank u for sharing the video with me

[@louisdevalois4358]

You are the best in all you do! Thank you for your help getting me through all of the steps involved in achieving your wonderful recipes! ❤

[@mrs.a2704]

I recently followed the tortilla recipe where you also added all purpose flour and they were delicious! My family really enjoyed them. 😊

[@MissTayzha]

You are a great teacher. Clear and to the point instructions. Thank you.

[@floralopez337]

I just saw your video and it was perfectly explained. The tortillas were beautiful! I just have a quick question where did you get your tortilla warmer? It looks like it keeps them really warm.

[@vincentv5433]

Ok, I will give it a try , I’ve done them a couple times before and not good! I will get that handheld heat sensor, maybe that’s what I needed all along.

[@dannymiddleton1142]

My mouth is watering and I cannot wait to try your marvelous technique. Love your videos !

[@mariacarrillo9919]

[@vincentv5433]

I have made tortillas but they don’t really puff, I will try your technique and hopefully get them to puff!!

[@VillaCocina]

I'm about to step up my tortilla game. 😂 I have slowly been improving and they are now more round in shape, than my previous lopsided shapes. 😂

[@markbastings4451]

Those look delicious, I have to admit my tortilla making skills aren’t the best so I’ll have to try again after watching you. Thanks!!👏👏👏

[@VillaCocina]

Go for it!

Hello Rossana and Nelson, I would like to say that I have also mastered the puff with no dry circumference around the tortilla. It completely makes the difference on the flavor of the tortilla. The tips you gave are super useful for first time tortilla makers. Now onto the added bonus stuff. Rossana happy puff dance 5:07 6:25 puffy pillow Nelsons two-handed smack method 7:06 still resulting in delicious puffy tortilla. Thank you Nelson, well done even though you had Rossana cringing 😬 😂

[@VillaCocina]

He did! 😂 We need to work on that flip technique, glad you loved the video.

[@kerrihiggins2106]

I've only had a few tortillas puff in all the times I've made them, so I'll give some of these tips a try! Would the method with the heat and thickness of the tortilla itself work for flour tortillas too?? I'm inconsistent on those puffing as well 🙃

[@sb5064]

I love your videos.

[@user-us6qx8xy6v]

what's the better press: Victoria or Masienda?

[@user-us6qx8xy6v]

Which press is better, Masienda or Victoria

[@laniesider2586]

Do you have to rest your dough before rolling?

[@RonR]

Hey, let’s give it up for Rossana on those close up shots on the tortilla 👏🏼

[@digvijayparmar8349]

❤❤❤ from Charlotte North Carolina😊😊

[@braddixon3338]

Edit: I just made these, following exactly as you said, and oh my gosh, they puffed up a mile! I've never been able to get mine to puff before. Thank you so much for your help on this. OK, I'm sure there's a little skill going into getting the dough to the right consistency, which then makes the cooking part easier to puff correctly, but dang, I'm impressed with that puff!! I've never seen anybody else get their tortillas to puff like that. Thanks for the times and temps, I'll try this at home too and see if I can match your puff. BTW, great channel, I've seen your presentations change over time and getting better, hence subscribing to you. Mexican food is the best food!

[@henrykaldenbaugh2313]

The moisture content is key to puffing,

[@oceanbeliever681]

Wow yummy

[@coolabah-blue]

I wish I was in your kitchen, beautiful tortillas, I have never been successful making corn tortillas,hopefully my luck will change after watching this fantastic video.😋🙏🏻💗

[@VillaCocina]

[@TamaleTaylor0]

I always get the bubbles when I lay it down, anyone know what the solution is?

[@dorothyp1473]

I’ve made flour tortillas but not corn. I plan to try this recipe today. Quick question, can I use my Kitchen aid to do the kneading for me?

[@VillaCocina]

I haven't personally tried it but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Let me know how it turns out!

[@matthewwhittington-jk9ep]

Amazing

[@VillaCocina]

Thanks!

[@h.sinclair]

ok wow continue to love your channel and recipes... didn't realize Nelson was the camera person! OK! OMG Nelson looks a little thin I can see his rib cage through his shirt!! This is a job for Villa Cocina more tortillas more stews, chilaquiles, enchiladas, tacos etc etc etc come on Nelson man you gotta eat bro!! ❤LOL love how you gettin technical on this video with the finer points of tortillas

[@VillaCocina]

Yes, indeed! we try to get a bit more detailed for all of those trying to perfect that puff.

[@user-uc8xb8lm5h]

Flour tortillas please

[@VillaCocina]

I have a couple of videos on it, feel free to check them out. ☺️

[@brauliavalenzuela3195]

I am looking forward to making some tortillas that come out soft and do rise when cooking. I still have a lot to learn and at my age I believe it is time. My mother used to make the best flour tortillas. We did not use or eat corn tortillas. I grew up in Texas a family of 12 kids and my two parents. I have tried to make flour and corn tortillas but neither come out soft. I still have hopes at and by my next birthday I will be a pro. I am 81 years old. No one of us girls make them as my mother did. There are of us girls. I will one of these days make my mother proud. She no longer is with us but I know she will look down and see me.

[@aussiebornandbred]

I wish we could get real corn flour like maseca here in Australia, it is available online, but it's soooo expensive, plus the freight costs more than the flour itself 😭😭😭

[@VillaCocina]

So sorry to hear that! 😢
