Hybrid Corn–Flour Tortillas
20
doses-
tempo totalIngredientes
2 cup masa harina
2 cup all-purpose flour
1.5 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder (optional, for softness)
6 tbsp oil or melted butter
2–2.5 cups warm water (start with 2 cup)
Instruções
Mix dry ingredients: masa harina, flour, salt, baking powder.
Add fat: stir in oil or butter until crumbly.
Add water gradually until you get a soft, smooth dough (not sticky).
Knead briefly (2–3 minutes) until cohesive.
Rest covered for 20 minutes (very important).
Divide into balls; roll thin (they roll easier than pure corn).
Cook on a hot, dry skillet 30–45 seconds per side until light brown spots form.
Stack and wrap in a towel to keep warm.
Texture Tweaks (choose your vibe)
More corn flavor: 1¼ cups masa + ¾ cup flour
More flexibility (wraps/burritos): ¾ cup masa + 1¼ cups flour
Extra tender: swap 2 tbsp water for milk
Slight chew (taco-shop style): use warm water + oil instead of butter
Storage
Fridge: up to 3 days, wrapped
Freezer: layer with parchment, freeze up to 2 months
