If I hear you go “hawk tuah” when you’re making tortillas…I’m skipping dinner.

I'm not a homemade tortilla guy but I'm on a big health kick and Siete Almond Flour tortillas are pretty close to the real thing and lower calories. They are kind of expensive in Sprouts or whole foods but a 20 pack at Costco is a lot more reasonable.

Well, it was but a few years ago when I learned you can milk an almond, so it wouldn’t surprise me.

You can milk anything with nipples, Greg.

I have nipples. Can you milk me?

Two dozen duck fat tortillas. Shaping is getting better after using the method where you pinch the edges and rotate all the way around.

My maiden voyage on flour tortillas. I made a batch of chorizo yesterday and wanted to try tortillas. Taste great, my rolling skills will take some time.

Guerrero is decent if you don't live near an HEB or some place where fresh-cooked tortillas are available (because anything is better than Mission!), but you might consider looking into uncooked. The two brands I have the most experience with are La Flor and "Tortillaland" and both are significantly better than any store-bought pre-cooked tortilla.

We gave these a shot. Complete waste of time and money. Looks great when you throw one on the comal....tastes like you just reheated an old Mission tortilla in the microwave

The 3 year old’s church preschool is having a block party to kick off the year. It’s a “fiesta” themed potluck. I signed up for tortillas and salsa. This is what I’ve been preparing for since we left Texas.

[PhillyD 1298]

You're in NC right?  I suspect a number of them won't know what hit them and will be ready to move to TX after tasting a good tortilla.

[Celery Man 21076]

lol yeah the signup for the potluck had both tortillas and “soft taco shells” listed separately. People were skeptical and many opted for the stack Tia Rosa or whatever, but many compliments. Some asshole in a Sooner hat reached for the store bought before commenting “oh somebody brought homemade tortillas” and going for the good stuff, so I have to give home that. Folks went hard on the salsa.
