This authentic corn tortillas recipe makes the best homemade tortillas that you will ever taste. It's really easy to do, and I also include many of my homemade pantry items and homemade condiments so you can start saving money today.
RECIPE FOR CORN TORTILLAS
2-1/3 cups masa harina (corn flour) 1 tsp kosher salt 1-1/2 cups warm water
Mix the masa harina (available in the ethnic food isle) with the salt. Add 1 cup of warm water slowly; stirring constantly. Knead the dough on a lightly floured board, adding enough of the remaining water by tablespoons until the dough becomes smooth, firm and no longer sticky.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions (makes 12 tortillas) and form these into balls. Place the balls between waxed paper and using a rolling pin, press into thin, round 5 inch diameter pancake-like shapes.
Cook on medium-high in an ungreased griddle or skillet for approximately two minutes on each side. As you cook them, stack on a large sheet of foil. Just before you are ready to eat, preheat the oven to 300 degrees and warm the stack for 5 minutes.
You may substitute white flour to make flour tortillas.
3/4 cup homemade mayonnaise 1/4 cup homemade cherry conserve 1/2 tsp curry powder 1/4 tsp salt 12 ounces crushed pineapple, well drained and squeezed dry 1/4 tsp lemon juice 2 cups finely chopped cooked chicken 1 cup finely diced celery 1/2 cup sliced green onion
First combine the mayonnaise, chutney, curry powder and salt. Add remaining ingredients - chill before serving.
